  • Internship Reference Guide
    Internship Reference Guide Last updated Summer 2016 1 Overview The first goal in the University of Missouri-Kansas City Strategic Plan 2010-2020 clearly states our commitment to placing student success at the center. Engaging students in “high impact” educational practices such as undergraduate research, internships, study abroad experiences and first-year/capstone seminars is a key way to provide an optimal learning environment for all students. Career Services in the Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management is committed to the on- going process of creating an Internship Reference Guide. The focus of the guide is to provide a one-stop reference for students, faculty, and employers for Internship processes as well as information on other “high impact” experiences such as undergraduate research, study abroad and service learning opportunities. The Internship Reference Guide contains information about academic department internship contacts, credit/non-credit internship course options, as well as eligibility and completion requirements. With this information in one location, Career Services will be able to more effectively provide information and referrals to students, UMKC faculty/staff, employers, potential students and parents as questions arise regarding internships. Career Services has included the information currently reported by a School, College or Department. As more information is reported, the guide will be continuously updated. “High Impact” Educational Experiences In addition to internship opportunities, undergraduate research, study abroad and service learning are important “high impact” educational experiences. While the guide focuses on departmental internship information and contacts, Career Services encourages you to review the brief introductions to each of the experiences you may participate in while a UMKC student.

My name is David Boutros and I am the Associate Director of the Western Historical Manuscript Collection-Kansas City, host of the Charles N. Kimball Lecture series. As I thought about the litt le editorial that I oft en give here, I decided I would not do very much today—perhaps you are pleased to know that. Particularly since we have two thespians who will come onto this small stage and perform dynamically for your edifi cation and entertainment, and I am sure to pale in comparison, I thought it best to just move quickly out of the way and let you have what you came to hear. However, I note for you, as unfortunately I too oft en must, the passing of someone important to this community. Many of you know that Jay Dillingham died this past August 13, 2007. Jay was 97 and a veritable legend in this city. Serving as president of the Kansas City Stockyards from 1948 to 1975, he helped build the American Royal Livestock Show into a national institution. And to the benefi t of a large group of grateful people, Jay was the creator of The Golden Ox steakhouse that adjoins the Livestock Exchange Building where he had his offi ces.
