o Obtain your academic advisor's signature for the internship on the internship contract - have a well formed idea of the company you wish to work for and what you hope to accomplish (objective).
o Talk with Professor Patterson about completing your internship contract prior to obtaining your employer's signature. Your measurable goals must be clear and achievable. You will be writing about accomplishing those goals as part of your internship. Your employer's job description must match those goals as well. Be sure you have scheduled enough contact work hours to satisfy the 50 contact hour/credit requirement within the semester. All this must be printed on your contract form.
o Bring the contract signed by you and your employer to Professor Patterson for his signature and administrative processing. You will receive a copy of the signed contract indicating the intent to register you for the course.
Timing is critical! If you delay and have not completed the above steps,
None of these consequences are desirable!
o After five (5) working days, go online to confirm you have been registered for the course. If not, contact Professor Patterson. Be sure you are registered for the right course number and the proper number of credits. |

o Provide your employer with the employer's internship evaluation form. The evaluation form can be found at http://www.stmartin.edu/business/internshipprogram/intern_final_evaluation.htm, to download and print, or, you can pick one up in the academic business and economic division office.
o Your employer's evaluation and your internship reflection paper as outlined in the Internship Responsibilities of the Program, is due no later than two weeks prior to the end of the current academic period.
o Contact Professor Patterson regarding scheduling either a telephone interview or meeting at the end of the internship between you the intern, your employer, and the internship coordinator, (a short 30 minute meeting) scheduled after your reflection paper has been submitted.
