Students will develop leadership, as well as team building skills. Topics under this course heading will vary from year to year according to student interest, faculty availability, and timely developments in the field of business. Senior standing is required. Qualified students work and study in a business, educational, or private institution, earning from six to nine credit hours, depending on the academic nature of the effort and the amount of time committed to the internship.
Students develop a major research project directly related to the practicum.
Prerequisites include junior or senior standing and the approval of the department chair.
