GS196 - Practicum in a Community-Based Organization

This practicum provides an immersive, embedded, community-engaged student learning experience within a single organization in the public good sector. Students engage in 40-80 hours of supervised, focused capacity-building work for the organization, toward mutually beneficial goals that promote student learning and community impact. Along the way, students participate in guided reflection and relevant skill-building, culminating their experience in a final assignment that connects theory and practice. Through the practicum, students have the opportunity to apply academic knowledge and skills to real-world contexts; learn-by-doing in unscripted, diverse, nuanced situations; and learn from practitioners. No laboratory. Offered P/NC only.

Prerequisite: Offered as Pass/Fail Only.
