SCC has an open entry, open exit
internship policy, although, over half of our internships begin
and end on the semester schedule. Placement continues throughout
each term.
Most of the Film School @ SCC student interns
are enrolled in the Editing and Television Broadcasting track
of study. These students work for local stations. There are sometimes
opportunities for film production and screenwriting students.
The number of internships available
fluctuates with business conditions in the area. Generally about
15 are available each semester although there have been more on
some occasions.
Students interested in applying
for an internship should contact Chris Jensen (480-423-6329).
Students must first be matched up with an employer offering an
internship and then, working with Mr. Jensen and the Cooperative
Education office on campus, determine the extent of the work and
the educational goals to be met. Once the employer, the faculty
supervisor and the student agree to a plan, one, two, or three
hours of college credit can be earned when the internship is successfully
completed.
