Computer Networking (MS): Internship Concentration
Degree Requirements
This concentration will require an Internship of at least four months duration (maximum of seven months) and the student to take 3 credit hours of ·¡°ä·¡Ìý650 and obtain a Satisfactory grade. An internship of at least four calendar months duration would require that it span at least one semester and possibly part of summer. The credits f´Ç°ùÌý·¡°ä·¡Ìý650 would be taken during the semester that includes the internship. The student would be considered as being enrolled full time during that semester.Â
A student would not enroll in this concentration in their first semester. They would switch to it in a later semester if they secure a suitable internship. Per normal CPT rules, International students studying on an F-1 visa would have to be present on a US campus for two full semesters (a full academic year), and present at NC State for one semester, before using CPT privileges to take an internship. If a student switches to this concentration but does not start the internship, they will switch back to the original plan.Â
This will be a concentration only for on-campus students. Students enrolled in our distance education – Engineering Online (EOL) - option will not be eligible.
