About the Setting
The practicum and internship program at UNOCS is designed to assist interns in developing clinical skills appropriate to those of an entry-level counselor working with adults. Graduate student interns gain experience working with clients with diverse backgrounds, life experience, and presenting problems.
Interns at UNOCS complete practicum during the Summer semester and internships during the Fall and Spring semesters. Interns completing practicum at a different site may be considered for internships I and II only if there are open positions.
