CO 210 COMMUNICATION INTERNSHIP



The aim of this course is to provide students with experience working in the field of communications. The “internal internship” will involve students as members of the Mass Bay student newspaper. Working as staff writers, students will be assigned a local Mass Bay beat to report on as well as work together as a group to decide on the direction the student newspaper will take. The “external internship” will be a more traditional internship in which students will secure internships with local businesses working in positions related to the communication process including but not limited to public relations, journalism, advertising, human resources and corporate communication. Working under the guidance of the faculty advisor and an off-campus supervisor, students will be required to spend 70-80 hours a semester and complete tasks as assigned by their supervisor. 3 credits. 3 Credits Prerequisite: CO105
