Complete this form immediately after accepting a position which you will use for your internship credits. However, if you're uncertain about the eligibility of a position for RPTS 484 credit, discuss it with the Internship Coordinator before accepting the position and submitting this form. The form is required before you can begin counting hours toward the required hours for the internship. Supervisor name and e-mail are used to request mid-term and final performance evaluations. Please email the RPTS Internship Coordinator, Dr. Heather Eden at heather.eden@tamu.edu if you have any questions. Approval usually comes via email within 2 business days. If you do not have a response in that time frame, please email Dr. Eden.
Keep in mind that you cannot accrue more than 60 work hours per week toward your internship. Not all positions qualify for internships. Positions must be related to hospitality, hotel management, recreation, recreational youth programs, events, tourism, travel and/or parks, and provide opportunities for you to apply the concepts you have learned through HMGT/RPTS coursework. Internships can be paid or unpaid. You cannot be related to your supervisor at the organization with which you plan to work. By filling out this form, you agree to comply with these rules.
