COR 445 GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP THROUGH SERVICE
This course serves as a capstone experience for students in the Periclean Scholars program, focusing on development in a country or region that has been chosen prior to the course by the students. The goals of the course are to collaborate effectively in order to continue to learn about a variety of aspects about this country or region. These will include: politics, culture, history, language, social issues, and the country's relations within the larger world. Students in this class will continue to develop partnerships in the country or region of choice in order to work toward improvements on an issue affecting the people of this area. An overarching theme of this course is to require the students to demonstrate command of the theoretical and methodological tool sets that they have learned in prior courses, including general studies courses, classes in their major, and all prior Periclean classes to communicate these perspectives to their cohort, and to effectively use these skills to meaningfully contribute to the various class projects and goals. Students will also be discussing issues related to grant writing, humanitarian aid, and sustainable program development. This course is writing intensive. Open to senior Periclean Scholars (or others with permission).
