Institution:

Rider University

Subject:

Description:

1-4 credits A supervised research experience in an approved organization where qualified students gain real-world knowledge and utilize their academic training in a professional environment. Placement may be in private, public, non-profit, or governmental organizations under the guidance of a mentor. The mentor and student will have regular consultation with the departmental internship coordinator to assess the student's progress. Normally, 50 hours of internship per credit is required. The grade for the course will be determined by the student's overall performance in their research work, a research paper documenting their work with their internship mentor and an oral or poster presentation at the end of the semester. Prerequisite: 2.5 GPA and permission of the instructor. Political science courses at the 100 level are designed for freshmen and those at the 200 level for students at any level. Courses at the 300 and 400 levels cover advanced subject matter. Students considering electing advanced political science courses should be certain to have sufficient preparatory work. If this is lacking, the appropriate courses at the 100 and 200 levels are strongly recommended for the 300 and 400 levels. When in doubt, the student should consult the instructor of the advanced course or the department chairperson.
