UTeach Internships
UTeach offers a unique internship program for its participants. Students are paid a generous stipend to work 10 to 20 hours a week with a non-profit organization in the Austin area that provides educational services to the community. Students may choose from a variety of positions such as assisting with the development of educational materials, working directly with families and children, providing guided tours at local museums, or assisting with after-school programs devoted to helping children succeed. Internships have proven mutually beneficial to UTeach students and the Austin community organizations.
At the beginning of each fall and spring semester UTeach provides students with a list of possible placements (see below). If you choose to participate you will be asked to select your top three choices using the on-line choice form that you can access from this page. (Please note: The number of internships we can offer will be based on our current funding status so get your request in early. Internships will be assigned on a first come first served basis)
The online Internship Choice Form will open on 1/12/12 and close on 2/28/12 for the Spring 2012 semester. ALL UTeach students requesting an internship must apply using this form each semester.
***Students must be enrolled FULL TIME to hold an internship. In addition, UTeach students that have not held a UTeach internship previously need to submit employment paperwork before they can be placed in an internship. Students may come into the UTeach office PAI 4.02 and ask for the documents they can be downloaded from this website***
The internship coordinator will work to place each intern at one of the students requested sites. Once an intern is placed he/she will be sent an email and asked to contact the site coordinator, set up a work schedule, and complete the site supervisor interview which will come with the email detailing the placement assignment. DO NOT START WORK UNTIL YOU RECEIVE YOUR PLACEMENT EMAIL. Spring interns may work from 1/17/12- 5/4/12
Interns are responsible for picking up timesheets (outside the main UTeach office - see sample below), having them signed by the site supervisor, and turning them in at the appropriate time. The due dates are posted at the office and a paper copy is available for you to pick up. The dates are also posted in pdf form below.
