As students complete their courses, they can also take advantage of some opportunities to advance their learning. First, students can get real world experience through internships that allow them to obtain academic credit by combining what they have learned in class with work in the field. Second, students can also earn Departmental Honors by taking some classes for honors. This deepens the learning possibilities and allows students a closer working relationship with a faculty member.
