You should have the makings of a serious and original research essay now. Decide on at least two sources that you will add on to what you submitted in the last class. Send an email to professorkynard@gmail.com by 11pm on Monday listing the two sources you will use and send this information in APA format. Both sources need to be peer-reviewed essays and can include anything read in the class or on the course website. If you do not use something from this class, then you need to use a library database as demonstrated in class for your sources. If your APA format is INCORRECT, you will not receive any points. This is Assignment #11 for the course (worth 2 points).

VI. Internships, Programs, and the SOPHOMORE Year
- As sophomores: Now is the time to be lining up internships and making plans for next school year. Applications are due fall semester and early spring.
- Things to do now: keep up your grades, develop a relationship with a professor who can write you a good letter (for the sake of full transparency, know that tenured professors have "the most clout"), make your resume look good
- Click below for some of JJay's most prestigious programs. There is also a link to the Career Center who have contacts that might help you. They will also help you to update your resume.
The McNair Scholars Program is made possible through a grant from the U.S. Department of Education. The objective of the program is to encourage low-income and first generation students (as well as students from underrepresented populations) to pursue graduate study, provide academically enriching experiences and mentoring to prepare students for graduate school admission and eventual doctoral study. The Pre-Law Institute prepares John Jay College students and alumni to successfully enter law school and the legal profession. The Pre-Law Institute supports this movement by crafting academic skill-building programs and professional development initiatives and by emphasizing early and intensive student engagement in developing the analytic and critical writing skills that students will need to perform optimally as law school applicants and as law students. H. Brown Law School Prep Program is a collaboration between the Department of Latin American and Latina/o Studies at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and the Ronald H. Brown Law School Prep Program at St. John’s University School of Law. It is designed to help increase underrepresented groups in legal education by providing eligible John Jay students (please see guidelines below) with an intensive summer program in the study of law at St. John’s University School of Law. The overall Program is a two-year Program that runs throughout the academic year and over the course of two consecutive summers. John Jay Honors Program emphasizes critical thinking, creativity, and ethical decision-making with attention to global concerns, community responsibility and civic engagement. Students participate in hands-on leadership experiences and research projects that address enduring questions of human existence; contemporary questions of social justice, and perspectives from the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. Students in the Honors Program rank in the top 10% of their class at the college, and admission to the program is competitive. |
PINKERTON FELLOWSHIP: The Pinkerton Fellowship Initiative (PFI) offers John Jay students the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with leading New York City agencies, youth justice agencies, and the Prisoner Reentry Institute. John Jay-Vera Fellows Program is a collaborative project between John Jay College of Criminal Justice, the Vera Institute of Justice, and Vera’s agencies for students at John Jay College commited to public service. JFEW John Jay Summer Scholars Program provides $3,500 to cover tuition for a 3-credit internship course and a generous stipend for an 8-week, full-time internship over the summer. Center for Career & Professional Development assists students and alumni in finding success in the career of their choosing through career exploration, skill development, gaining practical experience, and building a professional network. JJAY BA/MA programs provide academically advanced students the opportunity to simultaneously pursue the baccalaureate and master’s degrees (CJ, Forensic Psych, Public Admin). Start doing research on what good internships for your field look like. Meet with someone and ask (a professor or someone at the Career Center) |
