Requirement for GraduationIntroductionProfessional internships are not a new concept to college and university programs.However, to require this experience in the form of a demanding, well designed andimplemented internship is a very time consuming investment, which will yield excellentreturns for your students and for your program. Students, both traditional and non-traditional, are given an opportunity to demonstrate, advance, and refine technical andsupervisory competencies learned in the classroom and in the laboratories. Graduateswith this type of resume-worthy experience have a substantial advantage over peers withno internship experience. “Once, having an internship or two on your resume made you areal standout in the marketplace.

Biology students were concerned thatperformance in traditional laboratory courses would be weighed more carefully thanparticipation in S-L courses by graduate schools and employers, and many students worried thatthe perception of a lack of scientific rigor would reflect poorly on them. A barrier to faculty’simplementation of S-L was a resistance to the idea of reflection as a learning or evaluation tool,in spite of its integral nature in the effective
