EDUC 777 Administrative Practicum
Throughout their programs of study, students are encouraged to be involved in career-related professional practice. EDUC 777 is a special seminar designed for master's students to reflect upon the connections between out-of-the-classroom practice and in-classroom learning. This forum allows students to reflect upon their professional experiences and consider the implication for their field of practice as well as their own professional development and careers. (This concentration may also require a two-semester internship, based upon experience.)
