Internship, Scholarship, Conference, & Job Opportunities Students can
participate in an internship by enrolling for Soc 398 or Soc 498,
and they can earn up to a maximum of 8 units of elective credit for
their sociology degree. To be approved for an internship, students
should have completed at least three upper division courses in
sociology, arrange a work agreement with an approved agency, and be
willing to commit the equivalent of 30 hours of agency work for each
unit of credit they expect to receive. The intern must meet with the
Department's Internship Coordinator during the quarter, and submit a
journal of activities and a short final paper illustrating how
sociological concepts gleaned from their sociology courses have been
applied to the work setting. A list of approved agencies and other
program details can be obtained from the Coordinator.
Announcements concerning potential internships are included below.
However, students should also feel free to arrange their own
internship placement. Internship Announcements Cal State LA offers
