SYE 475.1 - OFF-CAMPUS STUDY: PREPARATION

Hours: 1
Students will enroll in this section the same quarter they study off campus. Before leaving campus, students will locate a member of the faculty willing to serve as a mentor for their project. Students will prepare and submit a proposal describing a complex contemporary issue they wish to study, along with a working bibliography, to the SYE off-campus committee. Preliminary reading of items on the bibliography and personal interviews with knowledgeable people are part of the preparation for the SYE Off-Campus Study. During and after the off-campus study experience, students will continue the reading, research, and interviews. Students will keep a journal while off campus and compile a research folder to submit to their faculty mentor upon return to campus. The mentor will issue a pass/fail grade before the students can proceed to SYE 475.20.
Prerequisites: Junior or Senior standing. Corequisites: Study off campus during the junior year, the summer before the senior year, or the first quarter of the senior year.
Notes: Specific requirements and guidelines are available from the Center for International Education and Global Engagement.
