ISS 496R Applied Apprenticeship in Social Development Studies

Interdisciplinary Social Science (2009-2010)

This course provides third- and fourth-year Social Development Studies students with an opportunity for an unpaid apprenticeship in an applied setting. The course consists of two components. The apprenticeship component normally requires a commitment of 6-8 hours per week for 10 weeks. The seminar component requires students to meet bi-weekly, as a group, with a course coordinator to set learning goals, to discuss issues arising from their apprenticeship and to present their apprenticeship experiences and outcomes.
