Internships and Independent Studies
Foreign Languages students may choose to enhance their coursework with an internship and/ or independent study to pursue in depth research or further a particular line of inquiry. Students work closely with faculty to plan their study and conduct research. Seniors have the option of writing a Senior Thesis; one semester is devoted to advanced research and the second to writing.
Guilford students are encouraged to develop a global perspective and Foreign languages students are encouraged to broaden their study through study abroad and opportunities to become involved right here in the international community of Greensboro. Students have completed a wide variety of internships in Greensboro: helping to integrate refugees into the community at Lutheran Family Services, working for the African Services Coalition and Casa Guadalupe. Students also serve as ESL tutors for the Newcomers School, at the Glenwood library and at Reading Connections.
