In effort to provide more options for students at this time, University General Education Council has approved the repeatability of 0.5-unit co-curricular courses up to 1.0 unit to count toward the General Education Co-Curricular requirement. See co-curricular approved courses online here.
This means that any 0.5-unit co-curricular course on the General Education list may be used twice effective fall 2020 for all undergraduate students.
1.0 unit co-curricular course may still be used only once for the Co-Curricular requirement; that has not changed.
An info session was held this week to learn about an opportunity to go abroad for

There is still time to consider this opportunity and apply.

If your first year at MTU you will need to see your academic advisor as well as your instructor for signatures.
Internships and Co-0ps are great for a number of reasons, resume builder (make yourself marketable), skill enhancer, career exploration, potential full-time employment and more. Here is an article about why.
BUS3900 is an SBE course for internship credit. Learn more about how to get academic credit here.
All of the SBE business programs offer an elective option for internship credit with BUS3900. The course does require pre-planning, development of a proposal with a faculty member in SBE and committee approval.
Keep in mind the following deadlines if seeking academic credit for internship:
- Spring Semester by Dec 1
- Summer Semester by April 1
- Fall Semester by July 1
Feel free to contact the SBE Academic Advisor, Jodie Filpus-Paakola, to discuss further.
