Women's Studies Internship
Agency Guidelines

Thank you for considering a Women's Studies student as an intern in your organization. The following are typical expectations that the San Diego Sate Women's Studies has of agencies providing internships to students.

  1. Agency personnel introduce and orient student to agency objectives, structure, policies, and procedures.

  2. The student's mentor/supervisor will explain the student's assignments and responsibilities and interpret those responsibilities as needed.

  3. The agency agrees to provide adequate space and equipment to enable the students to perform assigned tasks.

  4. The agency will provide appropriate mentoring, supervision, and/or instruction from qualified personnel who have the interest and time to assume responsibility for the student's instruction. This includes providing the student with regular feedback about performance, filling out an evaluation of student performance at the end of the internship, and going over the evaluation with the student.

  5. Consult with the Women's Studies Internship Coordinator if any problems arise and before taking any final action regarding student progress or problems.
