I'm doing an internship outside of Canada. What do I do?

You can do an internship anywhere in the world that is not on the Government of Canada's travel advisory list. This is the relevant . (No internship can be done in a country deemed to be red or orange.)

In addition to filling out the travel registry (see above), pre-departure orientation is required for all internships outside of Canada. And, yes, event a student returning to their home country for an internship needs to complete the pre-departure course. You can learn more here.

What is the deadline to enroll in a summer internship course?

Ideally, I鈥檇 like everyone enrolled by May 15^th.听 You may enroll until early June.听

My (French) employer is asking for a convention de stage.听 What do I do?

I can provide that for you. Make the request . (Note: I cannot create this for you after your last day as a student at 污污草莓视频. So, if you are graduating soon, plan ahead.)

Can I get internship credit for a research internship?

Yes, research is a career, so yes. But one cannot do an NESRC funding project at 污污草莓视频 and count it as an internship course. Or any other research program that appears on a transcript. In short, each activity should only be listed on a transcript once, so we don't allow anything that results in one experience being counted twice.

I'm registered for FAES 200/201/300/301.听 Tell听 me more.听

What is the point of a zero-credit internship course?

Some students want the documentation of the experience, some employers require that the student鈥檚 internship be recognized by the university (sometimes to get tax credits), some students want to apply for funding (and having the internship reconized via a course makes on eligible for funding).

What is the minimum internship length?

10 weeks long, 35 hours/week (full time). Or equivalent.

What is the difference between the different internship courses? (Comparison of FAES 200/201 and 300/301)

D1/D2 schedule:

听

We will be switching to a D1/D2 model 鈥� where one is registered for FAES 300 鈥� Part 1 in the summer and Part 2 in the fall. 1.5 credits each. But the work required of you will be complete once the poster event happens (mid-September).

The motivation for the change is to ensure that we have time to mark assignments without having a K appear on a transcript (which was the case when we had a September deadline for major assignments, and final marks were due at the same time 鈥� giving us little time to grade). This change does NOT change the distribution of work to later in the fall semester; you will still be done with submission in early September and the poster event will continue to be in mid-September.

Note that if you will not be on campus in the fall, please let me know so that arrangements can be made.
