SPMA 102P - Parallel Internship


Credits: 6 Total Hours: 300
Restricted to Sport Management (Bachelor’s Degree) / Sport Management (Diploma) with the co-op designation
This 8 month part time work experience course gives students an opportunity to participate in cooperative educational experiences that are extended over two academic terms. 

This work term is an experiential learning opportunity designed for students to explore and become familiar with the culture of their discipline and industry/field. In this course, students will link their academic knowledge and emerging discipline-specific skills in a structured and supportive work environment. Student reflection is guided through a series of course assignments, with students setting learning goals and identifying areas for improvement. 

A site visit is an integral component of the course, involving the student, Workplace Supervisor, and Co-op Field Instructor. Students are supported in the work term by the Co-op Field Instructor who mentors and acts as a bridge between the academic and work realms. The Workplace Supervisor and the Co-op Field Instructor work in partnership to assess student work performance and/or assignments.
