The purpose of this course is to allow students to apply their course work to real-world situations. Students will earn credit for sustainability work experience with public agencies, non-profit organizations, or private businesses.
Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes: SBLY 001 and 18 hours of course work in fulfillment of requirements for the BA or BS in Sustainability Studies. May not be taken on a Pass/D+/D/Fail basis.
