Course
Description
This course is an internship practicum for Criminal Justice students. The
course is designed to give the student first hand experience in the field
of Criminal Justice in an appropriate agency which meets the needs of the
student's career objectives. Students will be closely supervised at the
selected agency, developing their pre-professional skills while learning
the agency's organization, programs and methods. The student will also communicate
regularly, with Professor McQuiller Williams, the Field Experience Director,
to discuss the experiences encountered on the job.
Student Responsibilities
>>Students generally work at their agency Tuesdays through Fridays.
In some agencies, evening and weekend work can be scheduled. The Fall

>>Interns are required to complete 35 days for their internship.
>>Students are required to maintain a daily log of their internship
activities, including the date, time started and time ended, and general
