SCOPE I: Social Entrepreneurship Processes

Catalog description

Practicum provides students with hands on experience in working with social entrepreneurs at work in start-up or existing organizations (private, public or not-for-profit). Experiences may include helping organizations identify social needs, evaluate alternative methods for improving social conditions and develop programs to implement solutions. Meaningful social entrepreneurship can be local in scope, or contribute to the development of cities, regions, nations or even be global in its reach. Under a faculty mentor, students work on projects which will provide the opportunity to make a positive difference by applying their skills and training to address critical social needs.
