Credits: 3
This course is designed to build on psychological knowledge gained in previous coursework, explore different theories outlining how to work with agencies, and apply this knowledge to working in a community agency. The course requires students to spend 90 hours at the agency field site during the semester, and meet weekly as a class to discuss theories of intervention and their field experiences. Student’s final grade in this course will be based on feedback from the site supervisor as well as the instructor’s evaluation of classwork and fieldwork.
