HVAC 290 - Work Experience & Seminar

Description:HVAC 290 provides the student with a work-based learning experience aimed at applying the knowledge and skills learned in previous HVACR courses. The suitability of the work setting is determined through consultation with the HVACR faculty and the prospective employer. A one-hour-per-week seminar is required. This seminar will be arranged at the mutual convenience of the student and HVACR faculty. Additionally, the student will have to work for a minimum of 150 hours in a semester to receive credit for the course. Payment of an hourly wage to the intern will be at the option of the employer.
