Abstract
Background: This article critically analyzes the results of an online survey about curricular experiential learning (EL) completed by 36 Canadian communication studies programs. Analysis: Attention is focused on internships, co-ops, and community engaged learning. Six key areas illuminate the current EL terrain: types and scope of EL endeavours, pedagogical requirements and hourly commitments, student remuneration, logistical and scholarly oversight, EL partners and student activities, and stakeholder demand. Conclusions and implications: We highlight five issues emerging from the data that deserve greater attention and argue that scholars must proactively engage in conversations about the role that EL plays in the field.
