While classroom input is inherent in educational programs at Seattle University, the professional application of academic theory gives students experiences that will add to their personal and professional maturity. The internship is a requirement for all students majoring in Sport and Exercise Science (SPEX).
The internship experience provides the student with the opportunity to ask pertinent questions, make observations, and to participate in organization activities.
