Catalog description

This is the first advanced supervised practicum course, which includes a 2-hourpracticum seminar hybrid and 20 hours of supervised practicum experience for 16weeks each term (for a total of 320 hours per semester). It also includes a face-to-face liaison visit with the student, a seminar instructor liaison, and the practicum instructor each term.

The supervised practicum experience may extend beyond the limits of a typical semester.
