Internships

The internship course, CRIM 4920 is an elective course offered every term. Students taking this course will be placed with an agency/office related to the criminal justice system for the semester. Placement depends upon availability, and arrangements for the internship should take place at least the term before the student intends to take the internship class. Some internships, such as those with federal law enforcement agencies, are highly competitive, and may require an extensive waiting-period for background checks.

While not a required course, students in the Criminology & Criminal Justice major are encouraged to consider this course if they are planning on a career in the criminal justice system, and are concerned about experience or have some question as to which aspect of the criminal justice system they are interested in. The course can be repeated for a maximum of 6 semester credit hours.

Students interested in pursuing an internship placement should contact Dr. Gregg Weaver weavegs@auburn.edu.
