Some related fields of study may be: Accounting, Business, Communications, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Economics, Information Systems, Law, Office Automation, and other disciplines that may be related to SSA's positions. These opportunities could last for one summer or throughout your academic career. Students hired for summer employment may work approximately 90 days (not to exceed September 30th of each year). You may be hired for part-time work during the school year and you may continue in the program as long as you remain a student.

Formal periods of work and study are integrated into the program. If your work and academic experiences are successful, you may be eligible for permanent employment upon completion of your education.

The assignment may be in exchange for academic credit(s) based on the educational institution's requirements.
