College-Sponsored Experiential Learning (CSEL) is designed to integrate on-the-job learning experiences with classroom studies. These experiences are structured either to explore career options or to prepare for a specific occupation. Students participating in the Cooperative Education and Internship Program gain college credit and are graded for their learning/work experience by the appropriate faculty. Students participating in this 120 hour internship will earn 2 college credits for this experience. Upon successful completion of this hands-on work experience, the student should be able to satisfy instructionally selected competencies from those below according to the number of credits to be awarded. NOTE To be eligible for an internship, students must: Have completed a minimum of 18 or more credits within the last 5 years. Have begun course work in their major (at least 9 credits). Have an overall grade point average (GPA) of 2.5. Obtain a written recommendation by a DCCC faculty within the discipline of the internship. Submit a current resume to the Office of Student Employment Services.Upon completion of this course, students should be able to: Explain three program-related concepts that have been applied during the work experience. Describe the ways that technology is utilized in the work experience. Analyze the culture of the host organization. Analyze an operational process within the work experience. Demonstrate how assigned tasks depend on successful communication. Describe how time and activity are managed to meet work-imposed deadlines. Describe an instance where problem-solving skills were needed to analyze a situation in the work experience. Demonstrate specifically how job-related competence has improved. Formulate a self-assessment for career growth and personal satisfaction. Satisfy the competencies of the chosen CSEL placement (to be developed in consultation with the CSEL instructor). Work closely with a faculty mentor in the student's program/major to complete a project which articulates how the experience helps the student achieve program outcomes.

This course is an introduction to philosophical questions as treated by thinkers from a worldwide range of philosophical traditions. The course will explore issues drawn from at least three traditional areas of philosophical investigation. These areas of philosophy include the following: logic (reasoning and argumentation), ethics (moral theory and its applications), metaphysics (the study of the basic properties of reality), epistemology (the theory of knowledge), philosophy of religion (arguments for the existence of God, etc.) aesthetics (the theory of beauty and its manifestation in art and nature) and political philosophy (the study of principles of governing human society). In each case, philosophical problems will be discussed through the an encounter with both Western and Non-Western thinkers and schools of thought. NOTE: Prerequisites: ENG 100 with grade of C or better. Upon successful completion of this course, students should be able to: Identify the basic elements of sound reasoning and make a cogent argument for philosophical position. Recognize and explain the basic issues involved with significant philosophical problems as presented in the course. Identify and demonstrate an understanding of the major philosophical ideas or theories that address the philosophical problems presented in the course. Critically appraise the arguments of philosophers by offering an account of their strengths and/or weaknesses. Compare and contrast the works of two philosophers from different world traditions on a specific philosophical topic.
Prerequisite:
ENGÂ 100 with grade of "C" or better.

This course is intended for the beginning student in philosophy. In this course students, after acquiring basic argumentative skills and some background in moral theory, will examine several different contemporary moral problems. The moral problems discussed may include: the legalization of narcotic drugs, abortion, affirmative action, euthanasia, capital punishment, the ethical treatment of animals, etc. The purpose of the class is to discuss the above issues from a reasoned, philosophical perspective. NOTE: Prerequisites: ENG 100 with grade of C or better.
