WHY SHOULD I CARE? • Paid Internship for a semester • Looks great on a resume • Counts for advanced business elective credit hours (pass/fail) • Gain practical Marketing experience • Oh, and did I mention, it is PAID
HOW DO I GET STARTED? SIMPLE, REALLY. • Go to BB 107 Advising Center and get FORM 1 – this is an eligibility check. • Also complete FORM 2 – this is where you find a suitable internship. • UTA Career Services has a HIRE A MAVERICK database that can also help find a suitable internship position for you. • Negotiate with the company you select for the internship position. • When you are finished, bring FORM 1 and FORM 2 to Dr. Richarme for signatures. • He will give you FORM 3, which is a mini-contract between you, your employer, and UTA. • When that is completed, return it to Dr. Richarme for signature and activation of your registration for the Internship class.
AM I ELIGIBLE FOR AN UNDERGRAD INTERNSHIP? Eligible students include UTA undergraduate juniors and seniors with a declared major in the College of Business, with a minimum overall GPA of 2.5, and who have 3 hours available in advanced business electives. If you don’t know, Advising Room 107 will tell you.
WHAT ARE THE COURSE REQUIREMENTS? • Do a good job for your employer – think of it as practice for getting hired when you graduate. • Complete a daily journal on Blackboard describing your relevant Marketing activities. • Write a 10 page paper describing how this experience tied to your Marketing curriculum and upload to Blackboard by the end of the semester. • Your employer will fill out a Report Card (Advising will send it to them automatically) at the end of the semester. • You get a Pass/Fail grade based on completing the above requirements. • The grade is assigned by Dr. Richarme.
