Environment & Sustainability Practical Training

Catalog description

This independent study course offers international students in the Environment & Sustainability major an opportunity to reflect on professional and personal growth, challenges, and opportunities resulting from a recent internship or training experience (Curricular Practical Training, CPT). Typically, these internships/experiences take place in the summer and students, in the semester they return to campus, write a paper describing their work experience and how it connects to their personal educational and career goals as well as the learning objectives of the Environment & Sustainability major. The value of the course is in the deep reflection on expectations, successes, challenges and skills and knowledge gained during the internship.
