DESCRIPTION
The Global Internship Course (GIC) provides a unique and innovative opportunity for students to engage in an internship abroad for academic credit. Through its academic content, the course frames and supports learning that occurs at the internship placement and students' personal and professional development that align with the 8 competencies set out by the National Association of College and Employers (NACE).
In-class active learning gives students the opportunity to discuss and analyze theories and models of work, organizational behavior, and management in a cross-cultural context. Out-of-class field studies engage experiential and place-based pedagogies that enhance in-class discussions. Students also analyze the importance of, and approaches to, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) from national and international perspectives.
Students will engage in lectures, workshops, discussions, informal and formal presentations, self-guided and guided research, and mock interviews to grow academically and professionally while abroad. This course provides an opportunity for students to unpack, synthesize, and articulate the value and outcomes of their internship experience.
