About Internships
An internship is a temporary work experience that allows the individual to get hands-on, real world, entry-level experience under their belt with the supervision and training of an experienced professional. Some internships are paid while others are unpaid, but the main focus of an internship is on experience. An internship should include learning goals that connect concepts learned in the classroom to real world scenarios in an effort to gain practical experience and help the intern accomplish their career goals. Internships are important because they offer a number of benefits to both students and employers.
Benefits of an Internship
Is this what I really want to do for a career?
Devoting years of your life and education to a career is a big commitment. How can you be sure that it’s something that you really want to do for the rest of your life if you’ve never actually done it before? An internship can help answer this question by letting you sample the industry without a long-term commitment. A profession may not always be what we think it is and getting your hands dirty with some good old fashioned real world experience is the best way to find out if you’ve found the job of your dreams or just another 9-to-5 that pays the bills. The sooner you are able to figure this out, the sooner you can be on your way to having a fulfilling career in what you’re passionate about.
Make connections with professionals in the field
The old saying “it’s not what you know, but who you know” has some truth to it. A little bit of networking can go a long way, especially in competitive fields, and an internship is an excellent way to build relationships and network with professionals in the industry. An internship can also act as a 3-month-long job interview which is why some employers use internships as a recruitment tool. Do a great job, build relationships, contribute to the company, and when the internship is finished they may not want to let you go. At the very least, they can connect you to others in the field and provide a positive referral which can be extremely valuable. This also gives you an opportunity to get the inside scoop on the industry from people that have years of real world experience and their advice is invaluable when considering your future career plans.
Experience
Experience is golden, and the more experience you have the more valuable you are. Employers are always looking for candidates with experience. More experience means more skill, and more skill means you have more to offer a future employer. But how do you get experience if no one will hire you because you have no experience? An internship is a good place to start. Employers don’t expect interns to have a lot of experience or even any experience. It’s a good place to get your foot in the door. Additionally, the focus of an internship is to get experience. Interns are expected to be responsible, reliable, and professional just like an employee, but the objective of an internship is to get some basic hands-on experience. Additionally, an internship lets you develop or learn some skills that may be much harder to develop in a classroom setting. Think of it this way… reading how to ride a bike and actually riding a bike are two different things. Sometimes the best way to learn how to do something is to jump in and try it out.
Enhance your resume
An internship on a resume shows a prospective employer that you have some familiarity with the industry including some real-world training. This is especially true if the skills that were developed during the internship are listed on the resume. It can also be an indicator of your commitment to your career because it shows you’ve taken the initiative to get some hands-on experience. Additionally, a solid reference from an internship host shows that you’re trustworthy which is so important in today’s strong applicant pool. An internship with a respected employer could set you above the competition.
Benefits for employers
- Increased productivity by having additional help
- Experienced staff can focus on more advanced tasks while interns handle entry-level work
- Interns bring fresh ideas, new perspectives, and an enthusiastic willingness to learn
- Temporary help with no long-term commitment
- If a business is looking to expand, internships can act as a longer and more in-depth interview process
- A way to give back to your community

Getting Started
There are lots of different ways to find an internship and lots of different resources. But they typically involve one thing: networking. The right internship is out there somewhere and sometimes finding it is just a matter of asking around. Here are some different ways to find an internship:
Utilize UVU’s Internship Services
Talk to your internship coordinator Jim McCoy, james.mccoy@uvu.edu, 801-863-5702, or browse internship postings on handshake.
Ask faculty & advisors
These people more often than not have spent some time in the industry and may have some connections. It never hurts to ask, and if you get a good referral, that’s a huge bonus as well!
Reach out to your dream company
Think of a company you’d like to work for and reach out. Big businesses sometimes have a structured internship program already established and have a tendency to be more competitive for interns than smaller, local businesses. Research information on their website regarding internships or simply give them a call. Explain your career goals, your interest in their company, and inquire about internship opportunities. Be personable, polite, and professional. Be sure to get names and contact information to follow-up.
Attend Career and Internship Fairs held on campus
Friends of friends
Do you have a friend of a friend with your dream job? An acquaintance of an acquaintance? Reach out to see if they could point you in the right direction for getting your foot in the door to the industry or if they know of some resources to utilize to get an internship. People that are actively involved in the industry sometimes have some of the best information to offer and may be willing to lend a helping hand.
Getting Credit
To receive credit for your internship you will need to take an online course in conjunction with your internship experience. How this credit is placed depends on the major. (Some majors, like Biotech, have an internship class built into the program that students are required to complete. For Biotech majors, this credit goes towards that class. For other majors the credit can go towards an upper division elective.) Like any other course this includes coursework, due dates, and paying tuition.
Be aware that 60 working internship hours a semester equals 1 academic credit for Biotech majors, Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Environmental Science, Outdoor Rec., Physics and Botany.
Be aware that 75 working hours is equal to one internship credit for the majors of Exercise Science and Mathematics.
This is important when determining how many credits you’ll be taking based on how many hours a week you can comfortably fit into your schedule and what your internship host is able to accommodate – something you should also establish with your internship host beforehand. The instructor for the Biotech Dept. is Colleen Hough, colleenh@uvu.edu, 801-957-6328. Forensic Chemistry/Chemistry Dept. Merrill Halling, merrill.halling@uvu.edu, 801-863-5409. Earth Science/Environmental Dept. Eddy Cadet, cadeted@uvu.edu, 801-863-8881. Exercise Science Dept. Bret Boyer, bret.boyer@uvu.edu, 801-863-7397. Outdoor Rec Dept. Scott Williams, swilliams@uvu.edu, 801-863-6760. Mathematics Dept. Scott Lewis, lewissc@uvu.edu, 801-863-6271. Physics Dept. Phil Matheson, phil.matheson@uvu.edu, 801-863-7161.
Below is the process for receiving credit for an internship. Please note that you can’t receive internship credit for past internships that you have already complete, for internship credit. You may however, be able to get lower division exploratory credit, please see your academic advisor for information.
1. Meet with your internship coordinator
Together the student and the internship coordinator will discuss the details of the internship for approval. This includes items such as work responsibilities during the internship, number of credits to be assigned, checking to see where or if the credit can be applied, compliance with UVU policy, and to answer any questions the student may have.
2. The Online Orientation Video & Quiz
Complete the Internship Orientation Video and Quiz http://www.uvu.edu/internships/student/orientation.html.
3. Internship Application for Credit
Together with the internship host, the student will fill out the Internship Application for Credit, to verify the job duties, scheduling, pay (if any), etc. The student will then sign the form, it will then be signed by the site supervisor, the internship course teacher, then by the internship coordinator. The internship coordinator may contact the internship supervisor to verify the internship and answer any questions the supervisor may have.
4. Have the internship host complete the Master Internship Agreement. Before a student can intern somewhere we must have to an active Master Internship Agreement on file for the host. If we don’t have an agreement for the internship provider/host the internship coordinator will email a link for the agreement to be filled out and signed by the provider. The Master Internship Agreement is a legally binding contract between Utah Valley University and the internship provider. All internship providers should have a current, signed agreement with the Director of Internship Services at UVU. This document outlines the responsibilities of the internship provider to the intern, and the responsibilities of the intern to both the internship provider and the university. Additionally, the agreement serves to protect both the university and internship provider from improper conduct on either end. This agreement is good for 5 years from the date it is submitted.You can view which employers have completed a Master Internship Agreement on thisInternship Providers page.
5. Register for the course
Once the Application for Credit has been signed by all parties the coordinator will grant the student access in the system to register for the internship course and provide the student by email the Course Registration Number (CRN) & section to allow the student to register. Once the semester begins, the student will be able to go into the course via Canvas to access the course content.
6. Finish all assigned coursework by the deadlines
The student will complete the amount of internship hours based on the number of credits taken (60 hours/semester = 1 credit), (75 hours/semester = 1 credit), finish all course material (papers, evaluations, orientation, hours log, etc.) by the established deadlines with a satisfactory level of quality as deemed by the instructor to receive a grade

This position requires you to work closely with reptiles and amphibians and their food items (e.g., rodents). You will also be in close proximity to other exotic animals including arachnids, insects, etc. Experience working with exotics is preferred, but if you are a fast learner and free from animal related phobias you can still be a good fit. We are an animal facility that keeps and breeds exotic animals. Any philosophical concerns with this practice must be addressed before this position is taken.
You must be able to work individually or as part of a team when needed. You must be responsible, able to follow directions, and able to think critically. A positive attitude is essential while performing your duties. At the end of each shift you will report what was accomplished and any issues or concerns regarding the animals you were working with throughout the day. You will be expected to monitor, research, and perform tasks associated with animal care including: maintenance, propagation, and training.
Tasks include:
- Food preparation
- Feeding
- Providing water via water dishes, tubs, and sprays as needed
- Health checks and observations
- Reporting unusual behaviors, health concerns, or significant changes
- Cleaning enclosures and windows

Our primary concern with attire is the safety of the keepers and the animals they are working with. Closed toed shoes are required at all times. Loose jewelry should not be worn as these can be pulled or ripped. Long sleeves and long pants may help to protect against scratches, but are not required. Strong perfumes, body sprays, oils (especially anything with peppermint or eucalyptus oil), must be avoided as many of these scents are harmful and in some cases fatal to the animals we work with.

Rochester Institute of Technology
Discipline-Based Education Research (DBER) REU
The Rochester Institute of Technology(RIT) Science and Mathematics Educational Research Collaborative, an interdisciplinary Discipline-Based Education Research (DBER) group, will host a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program this year. Ten accepted students will be involved in mentored-research projects that focus on the theme of Models and Representations in STEM Education and will contribute to publishable research in DBER.
Accepted students will participate in a unique “Spring Ahead” research session during the spring semester to meet and work virtually, using video conferencing and online journal club discussions, with project mentors to outline summer projects. During the 9 week on-site experience at the RIT campus REU students will be involved in cohort-wide research methods workshops, smaller research group meetings, individual mentoring, Professional Development workshops and cohort-building events. REU students will earn a $5,000 stipend ($500 of which will be earned during the spring session) and will be housed, at no expense to the student, in RIT’s state-of-the-art housing complex, Global Village.
To learn more, please explore below!
What is DBER?
Discipline-Based Education Research (DBER) is a scholarly field that combines disciplinary
expertise in a STEM field (physics, chemistry, biology, etc.) with research methods
from cognitive science, psychology and the learning sciences. Researchers in this
field are interested in studying and transforming STEM Education through basic and
applied research. Our DBER REU program will allow STEM students to apply their growing
disciplinary knowledge to investigate important problems in education research.
What is the research focus of the REU program?
REU participants will have the opportunity to engage in novel research projects in
an important and exciting field: model-based reasoning in STEM Education. Models
(computer simulations, physical hand-held models, mathematical models, cognitive models)
are simplified versions of real-world systems that allow scientists to ask new questions,
test new hypotheses and communicate explanations to a broad audience. Modeling is
an important practice of science as models bridge ideas and observations of real phenomena.
Major STEM education reform initiatives in K-12 and higher education support opportunities
for students to engage in the practice of modeling throughout the STEM curriculum.
These reform initiatives must also be supported by a research base that includes
well-defined goals, assessment tools, an understanding of common student difficulties,
and effective curricular approaches
Will I have a project mentor?
Yes! During the program students will engage in rigorous education research projects
with the support and collaboration of research mentors. Through a variety of activities
we will build and support students’ research, communication and professional skills
to help prepare them for DBER Ph.D. programs and careers. We will introduce our potential
future educators to teaching, learning, and assessment of the core scientific practice
of modeling. Students in this program will disseminate their findings at conferences
and through scholarly publications.
