HMNS 290 - Internship in Human Services I

(3,0) 3 Credits
Prerequisite(s): HMNS 201 - Human Behavior and the Social Environment  and HMNS 205 - Interview and Counseling Skills ; permission of instructor.
An internship provides the opportunity for experiential learning through student involvement in a local social service agency. This course is designed to provide a bridge between the concepts learned in previous Human Services courses and the practical application of these concepts in a direct practice human service setting. A variety of field experiences are available to meet areas of student interest including work with the homeless population, at-risk youth, the elderly, individuals with traumatic brain injuries and other disabilities, and other non-profit sectors. Students will spend a minimum of 80 hours in a field setting and assume an active role in the delivery of services of that organization. A job description and individualized learning outcomes are established at the outset between the student, instructor and field site supervisor to ensure a clear understanding of the student’s role and the competencies to be developed through the field experience.
