Academic departments offer credit-bearing internships that are
supervised by a faculty member in the department. The faculty member
can help a student devise a plan for an internship experience that not
only builds upon the student's academic preparation but also relates to
the student's skill development and career interests.
Local internship sites for Wittenberg students have included
WHIO-TV in Dayton, the Clark County Historical Society, Mercy
Medical Center, the Springfield City Manager's Office, the Public
Defender's Office, the Springfield Museum of Art, and Rittal
Corporation.
Off-campus internship opportunities have included research at the
National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, participation in
the Wittenberg University Washington Semester program, the Student
Conservation Association, and in a program that is unique among
undergraduate, liberal arts and sciences colleges, urban studies summer
field placements with a city government.
