Although academics are integral to the college experience, they alone cannot provide the student with the practical training necessary to prepare him for a lifetime of service to Christ.
The internship program is designed to meet this need.
The internship program at Shawnee Baptist College is designed to prepare each student with practical “hands-on” experience in various fields and to correlate the classroom teaching received with the laboratory of human experience. The internship plays an important role in the development of students by providing them opportunities for learning through actual practice.
Every full-time student is required to participate in the internship program. If the student is in the local area and from a different church, he may choose to fulfill the requirements in his own church (under the leadership of his pastor) with a faculty member’s supervision. Each student will be directly involved in the development of special programs and various other duties within the scope of the internship. Credit toward graduation will be earned for each completed internship.
Additional involvement in the activities of the church, emphasis on the development of Christian character, and an ever-closer walk with the Lord are also stressed.
