EDUC 0260 - Global Civic Engagement


Credits: 3

Led by university faculty/administrators on - and off-campus, this seminar will focus on building international education experiences through travel and global civic engagement combined with classroom learning. In this experiential course, students will study the history and culture of the location they will visit, and will participate in cross-cultural communication in the classroom and in the field while working in an international setting, enhancing on-campus and on-site classroom education with hands-on service. They will be challenged to explore the issues of privilege, class and race related issues that impact civic engagement experiences. Civic engagement opportunities extend beyond national geographical boundaries and this course allows students to experience this first-hand by connecting service with experience, self and cultural awareness and education.

 

Note: International locations and service projects will vary. Students may take EDUC 0260 more than once. First-year students are encouraged to take this course.
