Internship
An internship provides students with hands-on experience
in a position where history is the focus. For instance,
students have interned in museums, national and state parks,
and other similar venues. Credit hours are determined
in consultation between the faculty member, the employer,
and the student. An internship can serve as a means to fulfill
general education credit and/or as a means to explore
career options.

Honors
Research
If a student meets the college's
stated requirements, he or she may pursue an honors research
project. This is a student-driven research project in
which the student works closely with a faculty member
to produce a major, high-quality paper on a topic of the student's
choice. As part of the project, the student presents
his or her research to the college community. |
|
Independent
Research
Students are also offered the opportunity to engage
in independent research on a topic of their choice.
This is similar to the honors research project except that
the student is not limited by the college's honors requirements. During
the summer, the college host the 'PC Summer Fellows'
program in which students and faculty work together on a project
over the summer months, and the student receives a stipend
for participating.
