Required Internship 1099 NEC

My son completed a college internship required of his degree plan.  The company he interned with sent him a 1099 NEC showing compensation of less than than $10,000.  When I enter the 1099 NEC into TurboTax it treats him like he is  a business showing he owes taxes.  Is this correct?

Since this internship was away from home and school, there were more expenses than income related to the required internship.  Is the a avenue to offset the tax with the expenses?
