Students must be enrolled full-time in an academic institution of higher education. The internship must be in fulfillment of the degree to be obtained. Student Internships are traditionally, non-paid.

It is the student’s responsibility to contact their respective college’s career office to coordinate the requirements of the internship. Documentation concerning the internship and any employer requirements should be secured.

Students performing an Internship must complete an Internship Application. In addition, a Consent and Authorization for a Records Check must be completed.

The forms should be signed, dated and forwarded to:

MUSC University Human Resources Management
19 Hagood Avenue, P.O. Box 250800
Charleston, SC 29425

If a suitable internship opportunity is available, the Office of Human Resources Management will coordinate an interview for the student. Upon completion of the interview, Human Resources will be notified if the internship will be “sponsored.”

It is the responsibility of the Student Intern to view MUSC’s OSHA and HIPAA presentations, complete the requirements of MUSC’s Employee Health Services. A representative of Human Resources Management will coordinate scheduling the student for a health screening.

It is the responsibility of the Student Intern to provide documentation of required immunizations. Any immunizations or tests required by Employee Health Services will be given, with the consent of the sponsor. Any costs incurred will be billed to the sponsor’s department.

When the student has received clearance from Employee Health Services, has completed the OSHA and HIPAA briefings and has successfully completed the records check (performed by Human Resources), he/she should report to Human Resources, 19 Hagood Avenue, Room 105 to obtain an ID Badge and to discuss parking options.
