Overview
The academic Internship Program features directed work-study experiences related to the academic or vocational interests of the student. Only students who are enrolled as full-time students for a semester or year in the Department of Overseas Studies are eligible for the Internship Program. Students must apply before the semester begins by completing a supplemental application for the internship program.
The program is coordinated by a member of the Department of Overseas Studies faculty along with on-site supervisors who hold academic or professional credentials. Internships are mostly focused in the areas of social services, health services and education. Examples of past internships include work in archaeological excavations, the Carmel Hospital, Haifa Women's Crisis Shelter, Gan HaYeled (special education preschool facility), and numerous organizations in Haifa that work with Arab-Jewish relations.
Students in the Internship Program work about 15 hours a week at their chosen site, submit weekly reports about their progress, and complete readings assigned by their supervisor. At the end of the internship students write a final paper addressing a relevant topic in depth.
