Internship (MKT 5100)
MKT 5100 (3 Credits)
Requirements:
- Marketing Majors Only
- Senior
- Marketing related topics
- No cold calling
- Students admitted to Zicklin after Fall 2006 cannot use MKT 5100 to fulfill any specific Marketing Department requirements. Other students may use MKT 5100 to satisfy Marketing track requirements as specified in the 2004-2006 Undergraduate Bulletin.
Information from the Internship Coordinator:
- You must obtain your own internship. You may find listings on the Jobs and Internships page on our website.
- After you have an internship offer, e-mail me 5-6 bullet points that describe the internship, particularly the marketing components. Also indicate that you wish to take MKT 5100. Please include all previous emails with each new one (it saves me a lot of time).
- All 3-credit internships (paid and unpaid) should be no less than 15 hrs/wk and no more than 20 hrs./wk.
- If I approve, go see Gaynelle, the Marketing & IB Department Secretary on the 12th Floor Marketing Department, and fill out paperwork. One form is for our records and the other is for you to take back to your employer stating that Baruch will give credit for your internship.
- After Gaynelle has your completed forms, she will e-mail me and I will electronically give you permission to register (approximately one day).
- You must register for the internship class to get credit.
- Registration for internship courses extends to March 6, 2007, but you will have to pay a $15.00 late registration fee if appropriate.
- After the internship is complete, you have to provide me a three-page paper on what you did and learned and provide me a note from your employer stating that you successfully completed the internship.
- A few examples of papers can be viewed at: http://ereserve.baruch.cuny.edu/eres/coursepage.aspx?cid=1219&page=docs
- When I get both documents, I will provide a Pass/Fail Grade for the course. If I have to submit grades before your internship is complete (this occurs in some cases), I will give you an incomplete and do a grade change when I get the required items.
- International students are only permitted to take internships during a given semester. Therefore, a student must be registered for spring and working during the spring semester. A student cannot register late in the spring and continue working at the internship after the semester ends.
