Internships

An internship creates a bridge between college and the professional arena, allowing students to earn college credit while gaining work experience relevant to their field of study. Career Development actively builds internship pipelines with partner organizations within the creative and entertainment industries, including studios, production facilities, theaters, casting offices, and agencies. The goal is to have students gain valuable work and mentorship experiences that build upon competency-based learning outcomes achieved in the classroom and apply practical concepts in professional settings.

For each one (1) term internship, a student earns four (4) quarter credit hours or three (3) semester credit hours or fulfilling a minimum of 132 hours (an average of 12 hours per week) during the term of enrollment, combining internship hours and related academic tasks, including the submission of regular journal entries. Weekly assignments and feedback are provided by the instructor, and evaluations are performed by the internship provider. To receive course credit for an internship, the student must complete required paperwork and register for the course before the term begins. If a student begins an internship without registering, course credit will not be applied retroactively.

To receive a passing grade for the Internship course, the student must complete the minimum applied hours within the term of enrollment. At the discretion of the Dean of Academic Affairs, an advanced BFA student who fulfills the eligibility criteria may receive

course credit for up to three (3) internships during a degree program. Columbia College Hollywood will not approve an internship that requires a student intern to report directly to a current faculty or staff member of the college.
