• SEAS Career Services office does not provide legal advice. We encourage employers with internship positions to consult their own advisors regarding compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), ownership of intellectual property, general liability issues, and other areas of concern. 
• SEAS determines whether an internship experience will satisfy the school’s academic requirements. Granting academic credit does not absolve employers of their legal responsibilities under FLSA. Employers (not the university) are responsible for ensuring that interns are paid in compliance with FLSA.
• UM-SEAS Career Services developed an internship guide that you can download HERE for further guidance if you are formulating an internship or have other questions on this topic.
