1.  Complete SOC210, SOC301 or SOC302, SOC311, and SOC314 or SOC315.
2. Two initial forms are required for SOC487 and SOC492 credits. Get the forms from the Sociology main office in Clark B258 or download them here: Acceptance Contract for Internship Placement (which must be signed by your internship provider) and the Internship Registration Form. Return both forms to the Sociology Main Office in Clark B258, or email to our Internship Coordinator.
3. Once approved, you will be allowed to register for SOC487 and SOC492. SOC487 provides the 3 academic credits for your 150 hours of internship work. SOC492 is the accompanying seminar and provides 1 academic credit. Register for both for a total of 4 credits. We prefer that you register for both SOC487 and SOC492 during the same academic semester. However, you may request a different arrangement with the Internship Coordinator. Please indicate this on your Registration Form by indicating the preferred semester and year for each course.
4. Begin your 150 hours at your internship and attend the seminar.
5. To receive a grade for your internship hours, have your supervisor fill out and return the Internship Evaluation Form. Get it from our main office or download it here. When signing the initial contract, the agency agrees to complete CSU’s Evaluation Form. It is the student’s responsibility to take to the Evaluation Form to the supervisor and to ensure that the proper directions for submitting the evaluation are available to the supervisor. The Evaluation Form or letter of recommendation is to be submitted to the Sociology Internship Coordinator, or to the Sociology Main Office in Clark B258.
6. Your supervisor can also provide a letter of recommendation.

If you have already completed 150 hours at an internship and want to apply it retroactively to our internship program, fill out and turn in the Internship Registration Form, and contact our Internship Coordinator for the  Retroactive Internship Form. Have your supervisor follow the directions on the form.
