Internships and/or K-12 Student Teaching The non-certification Internship is a field-oriented experience in a setting consistent with the student's professional preparation and career goals. It provides the student with the opportunity to put into practice the skills and knowledge acquired in the program's courses. Internships last from 3 to 6 months and can be done in the United States or abroad. The program has internship agreements with institutions in Ecuador, Korea, Mexico, Bolivia and El Salvador. Some internships include paid round trip transportation and room and board. Internships can also be arranged individually by the student. Students who add the K-12 ESOL Certification option to their program are required to do 2 semesters of student observation/teaching in K-12 ESOL public school programs in the Baltimore/Washington area. This internship is experienced at both elementary and secondary schools. Students who are employed as ESOL teachers can use their employment site to satisfy this requirement. Thesis Research Thesis option students develop a research proposal and write a thesis under the guidance of an advisor and several faculty members. Thesis students can do their thesis research in the United States or abroad. Many of our students who have gone on to doctoral programs have found their thesis experience helpful.
