Internships

Students who believe their knowledge in a degree-related field could be enhanced by supervised, practical experience within an appropriate organization may request an internship. Internship credits may not be obtained from past experience.

City University of Seattle endeavors to secure the cooperation of relevant organizations in offering internships whereby students may expand on classroom learning. With the exception of state certification programs, students themselves usually help arrange for internship placement acceptable to City University of Seattle.
