RRCC Student Employment


Internships

Internships provide students with an opportunity to work in a job that is directly related to their particular field of study, while bridging that important gap between classroom instruction and practical work experience:

  • All RRCC internships are credit bearing, from 1 to 6 credits, and subject to current tuition rates.
  • Students enrolled in an internship work a minimum of 45 hours for every 1 credit earned.  Typical internships are for 3 credits (135 work hours).
  • Interns earn a letter grade.
  • Internships can be paid or unpaid.
  • Students in unpaid internships can apply for an Internship Grant.

Qualifications

  • All internships are reserved for currently enrolled Red Rocks Community College students. We also welcome interested RRCC alumni to apply.
  • Fundamental knowledge in a RRCC field of study, usually one or two semesters of completed RRCC course work.
  • A cumulative GPA of at least a 2.0 is required.
  • An Instructor Recommendation form signed by the instructor who will supervise the internship.
  • An internship site.  Students who wish assistance in seeking an internship site are encouraged to contact the internship coordinator for an appointment.
