Provide Internships
for KIN Students
Many KIN undergraduate and graduate students complete
internships as part of their required academic experiences. Internships help
students to practice the skills and use the knowledge acquired in KIN
courses, as well as to learn new on-the-job skills.
The Department of Kinesiology always needs additional
internship opportunities for students. These internships may be either paid
or unpaid. The primary criterion is that students placed at various
settings will have a great educational experience under a well qualified
mentor.
Undergraduate Students
Approximately 75 undergraduate students in the
exercise science option participate in internship experiences each year.
