IDS 310 - Global Engagement Seminar (4 Cr.)
The Global Engagement Seminar is a team-taught interdisciplinary course that enables students to better understand how cross-cultural communication and international engagement fit into a professional context. It will introduce students to the foundational theories of cross-cultural exchange, perceptions of global citizenship, and knowledge base for transnational workplace. They will then apply this to global communication and collaboration in the sciences, international business, diplomacy, education and/or service work. The components of this course are both academic and experiential, combining in-class readings, discussions, and writings with local and regional trips for onsite observation and engagement. Through participation in the seminar students will develop and improve their skills in leadership, critical analysis, and cross-cultural communication. The Global Engagement Seminar satisfies the requirement for students who still need to complete their study abroad experience for May 2021 graduation while international travel remains infeasible. Prerequisite: junior standing. Offered Spring 2021.
