为什么要实习?  

By taking all of the required classes for a Deaf Studies degree, you can build a strong foundation of practical and theoretical knowledge. An internship is the next step to take that information and put it into real life practice, while building relationships with people in the Deaf and Interpreting communities! For interpreting students it allows you the chance to work with a certified mentor, face and learn how to respond to ethical situations, and put your interpreting skills to work in a supported setting. It’s also a valuable experience where you can learn more about yourself and what areas in the interpreting field you enjoy best. A Deaf Studies internship also provides the opportunity to learn more in depth about the Deaf and/or Interpreting community. Overall, internships are an invaluable growing experience in your journey towards graduation. They can be stressful, but if you follow the steps and information in this guide, you will be well on your way towards success!
