For MARA 294, you must be in your last semester in the MARA program and be in good academic standing (3.0 GPA or above with no outstanding incompletes).

You are responsible for finding and applying for an internship in a timely manner, staying within the published SLIS dates and deadlines for registration and for adding or dropping courses.

This application will be reviewed by the appropriate internship faculty supervisor, who will contact you to let you know the internship is approved and you are accepted into the course. MARA students will automatically be registered for the 3-credit MARA 294 course. LIBR 294 students must self-register through MySJSU. See the class schedules for the correct section number and the 5 digit class number. Please be aware there are separate sections of the LIBR 294 internship class depending on number of units, whether you are regular or special session, and for each internship supervisor (for archival/records or non–archival internships).

Statement of Learning Outcomes:You need to develop learning outcomes (link opens in new window) for your internship. Think about what you should know⁄be able to do by the end of the experience; don't submit a list of the activities you will perform for the internship. While you can use your internship to help meet one or more of the competencies needed for an e-Portfolio, do not use the competency statement itself in place of a statement of learning outcomes. You need to create specific internship learning outcomes that are measurable and that address the competency(ies).
