PAD 4949 - Public Safety Administration Internship II


3 credit(s)
Prerequisite(s): Successful completion of eighteen (18) credit hours (“C” or higher) of PAD (Public Administration, or Public Safety Administration) coursework.
Prior to enrolling in any upper level course (course number beginning with a 3 or 4), students must complete the following courses with a grade of “C” or better: ENC 1101 English Composition I, ENC 1102 English Composition II, and three semester hours of college level mathematics; or permission from the appropriate academic dean.

This course is a supervised field experience. Internship placement is arranged by the student, in partnership with the affiliated college department, in conjunction with public safety affiliated employers, such as criminal justice, fire science, or EMS agencies. This course will provide an opportunity for the student to observe the public safety agency in operation. The student will be expected to compare classroom theory with the day-to-day operation of the public safety agency to which they are assigned, including the roles and responsibilities of the professional in the field. Students will be required to complete 135 hours of supervised work. Student experiences will be documented and evaluated by the employer/supervisor and the professor.
