CE 287 : DEPARTMENTAL EXTERNSHIP (C)

Students completing a Civic Engagement internship are challenged to consider, reflect and share insights about complex community issues. Depending on the internship placement, students will be acting and reflecting on such problems as environmental degradation, social injustice, poverty, or race and gender inequities. Students will develop an increased sense of responsibility for the larger community, empathy with members of a specific population, community-based research skills, greater understanding of public policy, and/or the ability to connect a major or minor with community needs and development of public policy.
