Many students have asked for general information about the CA/CS 269 Internship Program.

CA/CS 269 is a for-credit course for students who obtain semester-long internships.  Students first apply for the program if they have completed a minimum of 12 credit hours in CA or CS Department Courses.  We then forward the student's applications and resumes to interested employers who call the students for interviews.  If the student obtains an internship with the program’s assistance, the student must then register for CA/CS 269.  Registration requires a Departmental signature and a letter from the employer.  Special requirements apply to those on foreign visas. 

Students may also register with Departmental approval if they find their own qualified internship and are otherwise qualified.

See the College course catalog and the Internship web site for further details:
