Project Examples

Requirements

Learners can complete a substantial project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the learner is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the learner (and company) a tangible goal.


Project activities that learners can complete may include, but are not limited to:

  • Community Engagement and Outreach Plan for Non-Profit Organizations



Additional company criteria

Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

This program requires for the students to be mentored during the first week before starting the project. Do you have the capacity to support this?

Will you be able to provide structured feedback on students upon completion of projects?

Will you be available for a midpoint check in with the professor? (Week 7)
