Prerequisite(s): 54 or more hours, minimum GPA of 2.5, and approval of the department chair
The accounting internship is a supervised work experience in an accounting setting. The specific work environment and student’s job responsibilities must be approved, in advance, by supervising faculty. Students will be required to maintain a detailed journal relative to their workplace activities, establish specific learning goals, complete a reflective essay regarding the experience, and will be evaluated by their workplace supervisor. Students must work a minimum of sixty (60) hours in the internship environment per credit hour earned. Students may receive from 0-12 credit hours for the accounting internship course, which may be repeated up to three times for credit; however, students cannot earn more than a total of 12 accounting internship credit hours over the course of a single undergraduate program and only six credit hours may be applied toward the minimum credit hours required for a single Coastal Carolina University degree.
