3. Job responsibilities 鈥� outlines expected tasks the intern will be doing
4. Skill sets 鈥� preferred/required skills necessary for the position
5. Hours per week 鈥� 10 鈥� 20 hours per week during the Fall/Spring semesters

7. Intern supervisor - title and contact information
8. How students apply 鈥� point of contact for resumes and cover letters; phone, email, or link
