EPS 450 Internship
This course is available to seniors who wish to gain experience in an industrial/company setting. Students will independently explore the practical applications of physical principles learned in the classroom. To be eligible to take this course, a student must be a junior or senior EPS major in good academic standing. Upon completion of the internship, a student will be awarded three credits, Pass/Fail. The three credits may count toward one of the two required semesters of research for an Applied Physics major.
