- Structured work experience related to a student’s program and/or career goals
- Supervision by a professional in the field
- Full- or half-year course credit
- Experience that enhances a student’s academic, professional, and personal development
- Excellent experience to include in a resume or CV Job search, resume writing, oral and written communication, and presentation skills development
