Internship Alternatives: Solutions for the COVID-19 Pandemic and Beyond
Wheeler, Darren A.; Waite, Brandon C.
Teaching Public Administration, v41 n1 p32-40 Mar 2023
Internships are an integral component of most undergraduate and graduate public administration programs. These learning opportunities allow students to get practical experience in a workplace setting before graduation and provide them with an opportunity to apply knowledge gained in the classroom to the "real world." But what are students, departments, and employers to do when circumstances--including major disruptions like the COVID-19 pandemic as well as situations unique to specific students--complicate or even prevent on-site internship experiences? This article outlines a variety of approaches to finding a solution to this problem, weighing the benefits and drawbacks of each.
