HLS 403 Research-Practicum
Each student will have two tasks to complete for the Thesis-Practicum. The first task is to write a kind of capstone paper of 20 pages for the HLS minor that (a) shows the student's in-depth knowledge of one of the issues treated in HLS, and (b) offers a detailed real-life plan for how the student is going to impact this issue in his or her chosen field of work or future study. This paper will be based on a paper that students are required to write for HLS 201. The second task is to work with Franciscan University's Career Services Office on a one-to-one basis, meeting perhaps once a week, to apply to jobs and/or graduate programs so that the student can make the next necessary, practical step in impacting the culture.
Prerequisite
Students must have completed all required courses for the HLS Minor (or be completing those requirements during the Spring semester of their senior year).
