To provide students with the opportunity to gain additional experiences in the areas of study and to confirm their career interests, Hendrix College offers an Internship Program through the Office of Career Services. This program offers a platform for students to apply classroom theories to the solutions of actual problems in the work site as well as allows participants to test whether a specific career path is relevant and exciting for them. Site sponsors assist interns by providing training, projects, and direct supervision throughout the internship timeline. Internships are available to sophomores, juniors, and seniors of all majors. A shorter, more limited format of the internship, shadowing, is available to all studnets including freshmen.

Internships can satisfy certain credit types withink the academic field:

• Academic Grade(letter grade counts toward GPA)
• Academic Course Credit (no letter grade, but does count toward graduation and as a scheduled class)
• Academic Course Non-Credit (only listed on the transcript)
• Odyssey Credit (Pre-approved for the P/L Credit)

Only one internship can be counted toward graduation. Few internships are paid internships. Potential internship funding may be pursued viad the Hendrix Odyssey Program, the Miller Center, the Hendrix Murphy Program, or Project Pericles.

Interested students are required to meet with the Career Services Internship Counselor. For additional information or to schedule an appointment, please contact the Office of Career Services at (501) 450-1416, careerservices@hendrix.edu, or visit their website at www.hendrix.edu/career.
