PSY3896

The purpose of this applied course is to integrate students' academic, personal, and career development in the context of an applied, community-based, concurrent internship. Students will explore their own interests and values, identify and build desired career readiness competencies, and synthesize their learning through the creation of a culminating internship "Final Reflection Project." Our focus will be on self-reflection, professional development, and the application of psychological principles to internship experiences. An important skill developed prior to our course involves the key step that students must secure an approved internship to enroll in the class. While the field of psychology is broad in nature, the internship must be in the realm of psychology and directly related fields.
