Course: Aviation Technology Internship
Course: Aviation Technology Internship
Career Academies and Programs of Study: Aerospace Engineering and Aviation
This course is designed to allow students time within the school day to conduct out-of-school internship under the guidance of an engineer, scientist or computer scientist in aviation technology. The internship must be at a research facility or approved work site. Students are at the research site 4 days a week and a minimum of 2 3⁄4 hours each day. One day each week, the student is on campus the entire day, assigned to the RP teacher and/or Coordinator for at least one class period. It is the expectation that he internship experience will provide the student with meaningful avenues to explore a topic that can be further developed in the Aviation Technology Research Practicum course. Each student in this internship will be required to maintain daily records of research activity(s) using a prescribed “log book” methodology and develop and maintain electronic and printed copies of a portfolio which includes: description of his/her internship, academic resume/vitae, all components of the 5-chapter RP paper, school report cards, letters of recommendation, and college acceptance letters.
Must be approved by AEAT Coordinator and selected by AEAT Internship Panel Review Committee
