STUDENTS' INTERNSHIP PROJECTS ON DISPLAY AT COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE, PLANNING AND DESIGN

MANHATTAN -- Projects by student participants in the spring and summer 2010 academic internship programs of Kansas State University's College of Architecture, Planning and Design are on display through Oct. 29 in the Chang Gallery and first floor of Seaton Hall's east wing.

The exhibition is free and open to the public. Chang Gallery hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.

Students majoring in architecture, interior architecture and product design, and landscape architecture can opt to participate in paid internships with professional offices across the U.S. and around the world. Through these internship programs, students directly experience the world of professional practice before returning to K-State to finish their studies. The academic internship experience acquaints students with some of the expectations and working environments of their professions, and allows them to test their early notions about career choices in a variety of professional and geographic settings.
