Undergraduate Internships
We have established partnerships with several agencies to provide students with unique internship opportunities. Students will acquire vital hands-on experience in a variety of professional settings, including:
- Ellis County Sheriff’s Office (Criminology and the Justice System)
- Early Childhood Connections (Pre-K program)
- West Central Kansas Special Education Cooperative (Psychological Services with children and adolescents)
- FHSU Health & Wellness Services (Peer Counseling and Mentoring)
The number of seats available for these internships is limited, so students need to apply for an internship placement. See the resources below for more information.
