Internship

Thank you to all of you who have contributed to our discussion on 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. Such inspiring stories and fun to read what you shared!

Now, we have seniors who are in the midst of making decisions about internship. There are certainly a million variables that go into making such a big decision. A bit about how we do internships here at Western Oregon University - Our students do a full time internship during the Spring term of their senior year. That means 350 hours over a 10 week term. 

Here is our question to you - where did you do your internship? What did you learn? what do you wish you had done? pros/cons? Other things that our seniors should consider as they are making their decisions?

Thanks for your input!
