BA 2191
BA 2191: Intended for Students who are required to earn credit for their internship
Internships are not a required component of the curriculum at Fisher; therefore students do not receive credit for doing internships. The Office Career Management does offer a course that students can enroll in if their internship employer requires them to earn credit, or for international students doing CPT (Curricular Practical Training). BA 2191 is taught in an online (distance learning) format and students must complete a series of assignment related to their internship.
*The majority of internships completed by Fisher students are paid and the Office of Career Management encourages all employers to pay their interns.
