The Academic Internship
Program will mark its 30th anniversary and a move to a new
campus location during an open house event to be held Oct.
14 from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Formerly located
in room 3255, Literature Building, the AIP staff has moved
to room 3210 of the Literature Building on the Warren College
campus.
AIP is an academic
department providing UCSD students with the opportunity to
earn university credit for internships related to their career
interests and field of study.
Elise Tiregol, director,
noted that for 30 years AIP has connected students with internships
in the San Diego community. Originally designed for the Warren
College students, the Academic Internship Program later made
its service available to undergraduates from all colleges
and currently provides opportunities to juniors and seniors
from all colleges and majors. Tiregol said the AIP now offers
specialized programs that include Washington D.C., London,
UC Sacramento and the Pacific Rim Undergraduate Experience,
and continues to develop additional U.S. and international
venues.
