Internships
Students may get academic credit for an internship by enrolling in the BL399 course. However, the student is responsible for arranging an off-campus placement and an on-site supervisor. The links below can be a good starting point to find a position. Please contact Professor Marie Lau to discuss an internship during the fall or spring semesters. Summer internships are possible, but a student additionally needs to find a Loyola professor to serve as their faculty sponsor (in addition to the on-site supervisor) and must pay tuition (3 credit hours) to receive course credit.
Some Biohealth major may take MK499 in addition to BL399.
