Program Requirements
Once a student has met all the eligibility criteria, has applied, and has secured an internship, they are enrolled in the Arts & Humanities Internship.
The internship will appear on your transcript as ARTHUM 3000A/B/Y. This is a Pass/Fail course that counts as 0.5 academic credit towards the 20.0-credit graduation requirement.

As with other courses, there are specific internship agreements and assignments that MUST be submitted for successful completion of ARTHUM 3000A/B/Y (see below).
IMPORTANT: If the student does not submit ALL of the below assignments by the deadline communicated to them at the beginning of their internship, they will receive a Fail for the course ARTHUM3000 A/B/Y.
These internship forms and assignments are:
- Student and Partner Internship Agreement: Defines and gives the details of the internship and outlines the student’s and internship supervisor’s responsibilities for the duration of the internship.
- Learning Outcomes: A short assignment that the student must complete in consultation with their internship supervisor during the first week of the internship to help establish goals for the internship, which will later help the student articulate their learning from the internship experience.
- Midpoint Check-in: Halfway through the internship, both the student and internship supervisor are required to assess the progress of the internship up to that point.
- Final Report: At the end of the internship, the student completes a final report that details their experience; considers their expectations, challenges, and personal and professional development; and relates their experience to their coursework and program of study. The supervisor must also complete a Final Evaluation.
- Internship Reflection: At the end of the internship, the student must submit either a video reflection or written reflection that highlights their internship experience and what they learned. The Internship Reflection must be submitted at the same time as the Final Report.
The Experiential Learning Specialist/Assistant will send all the forms and assignments mentioned above. Students have 7 days to complete each form/assignment from when they receive it from the Experiential Learning Specialist/Assistant.
Please contact ahintern@uwo.ca with any questions about the requirements mentioned above.
Note: Each student must monitor their @uwo.ca email account for the duration of the internship for emails and reminders about internship agreements, forms, and assignments.
