Internship and Public History Seminar

Catalog description

What is public history? What do public historians do? What does history look like outside of the classroom? What are the public debates about the telling of history, and what are the consequences? This is a hands-on course which requires both an internship and seminar participation. Students will have an internship with a community partner and intern for 60-70 hours for the course of the semester. In addition, we will have regular seminar meetings as well as guest lectures and field trips. This course does have a Co-Requisite for service learning -- it is SRVC 4890 . Course may be repeated up to unlimited credit hours.
