Leadership Practicum

Catalog description

This course deepens students' capacity for leadership, in addition to concluding the leadership minor by linking leadership practice to leadership theory. Students assume leadership responsibilities with a Trine University or community organization, program, or project in order to gain direct leadership experience and further the mission and goals of the selected organization. Students will set goals, practice and develop skills, reflect on experiences, evaluate actions, discuss lessons learned, and complete assignments. A well-written synthesis paper and a high-quality portfolio presentation are crafted to integrate students' learning about leadership and to provide a post-graduation plan for life-long leadership development. Current and active involvement in a leadership position is required for students in this class.
