Oral Communication Course Offerings - Summer 2009

Extended Summer Session: June 1 - August 7, 2009
Students work in environmental internship placements tailored to the students’ academic program, interests, and skills. Internships are in public and private organizations focused on environmental policy, research, regulation, enforcement, and education. Students must work a minimum number of 100 hours at the placement site and/or doing the fieldwork required by the internship. A classroom component is designed to provide an opportunity for analysis and discussion of the internship experience. Professor Goldin has a number of diverse environmental internship opportunities available for students, but also welcomes students to find their own internship placements if they wish. Internships may also be done in other areas of the U.S. and abroad. You can view a syllabus for this class here.
To register for this course, students should first contact Prof. Goldin to discuss their proposed Internship, or for advice in finding an internship site. The Professor will provide approved students with a unique SAGE Permission Code that will allow them to enroll in the class.
