Orientation Internships Capstone Supporting Resources

The Human Services program stands with our students, colleagues, community, and our nation against hate, social injustice, and racism. We will listen, learn, and advocate for an inclusive community and promote social justice through our voices and actions. We reaffirm our commitment to embrace diversity and diverse opinions and treat all people with respect.

This page will give you information on the Human Services Orientation, Internship, and Capstone requirements. Resources are provided to support your coursework. Linked below, you will find a copy of the program handbook, an academic road map (course sequencing), elective course options, and requirements for the Human Services minor. You will also find links to a number of professional organizations, UAZ Career Development, and CAST’s Career & Engagement resources.

Plan of Study: Please contact the Human Services Program Director with questions about course sequencing and/or your plan of study. It is very important to complete your courses in the correct sequence to ensure you are skill-building successively and cumulatively and that you are not overloaded in your final semester. BEFORE heading into your senior year, set up a meeting with the Program Director to discuss your senior year plan of study, workload, and timing of HUSV 498: Senior Capstone.

Internships: It is never too early to start thinking about your internship placement. Contact Liz Marsalla, Career & Engagement Coordinator with placement ideas, and your internship goals. Liz can place students in locations to gain experience and can also assist students in having their previous experience evaluated for hours towards the program requirement. Students can submit previous experience HERE

In your senior year, you will complete HUSV 493: Internship. Please review the internship process, and meet with Dr. Rae and Dr. Wallace during the semester before you plan to complete.
