Student Evaluations
Employers must evaluate students twice during the semester. Interns are responsible for providing evaluation forms to the employer. The Intern can find these forms on Blackboard. These evaluation forms are meant to provide an accurate evaluation of the intern's performance and the intern's progression throughout the semester. (Consult your course syllabus or the Internship Coordinator for a specific due date).
It is the student's responsibility to ask/remind employers to fill in evaluation forms. Late forms will result in a grade of 'X.' Being fired from an internship position or receiving a poor evaluation could result in a failing grade.
