Internship 2 is for students participating in their second semester of internship with an employer. Internship 2 is limited to students who successfully completed the requirements of Internship 2. This course is intended for students participating in their second semester of an internship with the same employer as for their Internships for Management 1 course. It provides students the opportunity to undertake professional level employment that applies and leverages AGSM core and elective courses and supports students career objectives while earning credits toward the MBA degree. Upon registering for ACT 7252 each student will be assigned a Faculty Internship Coordinator (FIC) by the Director of Career Management. Internship students will interact closely with their FIC who will serve as their advisor and mentor for the term with the goal of maximizing personal and professional development from the internship experience. The student may work with the FIC or other faculty when seeking specific technical advice such as finance, marketing, data analysis, etc. Coursework is designed to clarify goals, strategy, action steps, and metrics, to maximize integration of material, and to aid the student in communication of the implementation of their plan with the employer. The coursework includes a position plan, progress updates, and final paper. A sampling of professional deliverables is required to be shared with the FIC. Students applying to register for Internship 2 must submit an internship proposal via Internwatch at http://agsm.willamette.edu/internwatch/ and complete an information meeting with the instructor.
