Internship Requirements for MUP and MPA Students Step-by-Step Guide
MPA students must work a minimum of 300 hours; MUP students must work a minimum of 400 hours. Students must keep track of the hours worked and must have the hours log approved by the supervisor.
Internship supervisor and student must determine mutually agreeable goals and objectives for the internship using the Internship Contract as a guide. The Contract should outline what the student hopes to learn, the assigned tasks related to these objectives, and the end product of the internship.
Students whose programs require an internship (MPA, MUP and BS) must successfully complete the internship, as indicated on the Internship Contract, and be evaluated by the supervisor. The supervisor must evaluate the intern at the completion of the internship and submit the evaluation to the Career Services Office.
We encourage the student to request that the supervisor write a letter of recommendation for the student’s personal use.
