Some departmental internship courses have been pre-approved to fulfill the Beyond the Classroom requirement. Students can check with their major advisor and individual college to inquire about pre-approved departmental internship courses or browse Honors College BTC Database. Students are responsible for keeping their Honors advisor informed if they plan on enrolling in a departmental internship course. Students will either self-enroll or be enrolled through their department. If approved, when the course is reflected on the student’s transcript and passed with a grade of ‘C’ or better, the Honors advisor will note completion of the BTC requirement on the student’s Honors Advising Form.

Students may not be awarded more than 3 Honors credits for a departmental internship course. For example, if a departmental internship course is listed in the academic bulletin as 6 credits, the student can earn a maximum of 3 Honors credits for that course. Similarly, if a departmental internship course is listed as 12 credits, the student can earn a maximum of 3 Honors credits for that course. Also, if a departmental internship course is listed as 2 credits, the student can earn a maximum of 2 Honors credits for that course.
