School of Education Internship Education Program

Parochial, private and public-school systems are used for clinical experience in the following counties: Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Passaic, Sussex, Morris, and Warren. The Office of Field Placement provides and secures all pre-service and student teaching placements. School of Education students are not permitted to secure and/or pursue their own clinical experience and/or Clinical Practice II assignment. The student may not contact school personnel, i.e. superintendent of schools, principal, cooperating teacher, school board member, etc. for a placement. This contact includes an in-person meeting, telephone, written, or email communication. If a student secures a placement via personal contact or communication, the placement will not be accommodated, or the assignment will be terminated. The School of Education student will be placed in appropriate field experiences in accordance to the course sequence being taken.
