Offering an Unpaid Internship or other forms of unpaid applied experiences (service learning, volunteering) to students is uniquely reserved for Non-Profit Organizations. Unpaid internships most commonly include Academic Credit for the student. Unpaid academic internships and other experiences where academic credit is involved require students to be enrolled in a related course and the organization and CSUB must enter into an agreement.
For-Profit companies considering unpaid internship are advised to review the Department of Labor's Fair Labor Standards Act regarding academic internships.
Two options for an agreement are possible:
Short-Term Agreement (Two Academic Quarters)
After completing the form, you will receive an email / phone call from CECE staff to continue the process.
