COMM 590 - International Externship

Upper Division

Prerequisites
Master’s students only.

This final experience works as a “capstone” that synthesizes and builds upon the competencies learned in the MA courses. Students choosing this option spend two weeks on campus and two weeks traveling to a site (international unless global health and safety measures requires a domestic site) to conduct an applied research project as a group. Site preference, whenever possible, is given to Lasallian partner organization(s) working in international settings. Students act as consultants and assist the client organization in the development and execution of a data-driven research project or provide a series of workshops and training in Communication. Students may also work to create strategic materials for these international partners. The cost of travel for this course is not included in tuition.
