Experience-based Education Credits (11:400:494)*
Rutgers students who successfully complete the Grape and Wine Science Certificate Program may participate in the Grape and Wine Science Internship Program to obtain a paid internship at a NJ winery. The requirements are identical to the SEBS-SPIN program where students identify an employer who is willing to hire them and then the student intern, in consultation with his/her supervisor, develops an internship plan and learning goals. Students should register for 3 credits and will be expected to complete 160 work hours on a full-time or part-time basis. Students who are not SEBS students should obtain permission from their program director, department chairperson, or faculty advisor to register for this course.
Information about the SEBS-SPIN Program can be found here: https://sebsspin.rutgers.edu
