Description:

The main goal of this course is to provide a "capstone" experience by applying and further developing knowledge and skills through an internship in a human service organization. Other goals include enhancing skills in communication and interpersonal relations; drawing connections between theory and practice; learning about psychological interventions; seeing how service agencies operate; working with diverse types of people; solving problems; planning a career; reflecting upon and understanding other people and oneself; and appreciating the role of ethics and values in promoting social justice through participating in the provision of human services to people in need. These goals will be pursued through supervised field work, readings, lectures, class discussion, exercises, and various written assignments. The culmination of the course work is completing a portfolio containing evidence of work undertaken and products created which integrates the internship experience and builds bridges between the realms of school and work.
