| This course is designed to give the student direct experience in various health care settings. The experiential component allows the student an opportunity to apply newly acquired normative and cognitive skills in an actual working situation. Students may either do an internship or complete a supervised project which will also involve some form of interaction with health-related organizations. The areas from which students may choose are hospitals, federal government, long-term care facilities, community health care centers, public health agencies, group practices, medical programs, volunteer agencies, mental health facilities, and others. This experience occurs during the last semester in the program. There will be a comprehensive assessment to determine if individual students have met each of the articulated core student learning expectations. |
