Course Credit for Internship Work (CLA 492)

Economics majors may satisfy up to 3 units of major 300-level elective credit with an internship by enrolling in CLA 492: Internship in Liberal Arts. To receive major elective course credit, the student must inform an advisor at ATLAS after they have enrolled in the course. Note that you may earn up to six units in CLA 492 for internship work, but only three units will count toward satisfying your elective course requirement.
