Impact Practicum MGT 524 01
Instructor Tony Sheldon
About the Course
The Impact Practicum is an elective that offers an opportunity for students to receive course credit and faculty oversight for a professional project that they want to pursue during the fall semester. Projects could arise from a number of sources, including: serving on the board of a local nonprofit through the Nonprofit Board Fellows; ongoing work with a local organization through the Social Impact Consulting club or Inclusive Growth Fellowship; a summer internship; or opportunities that surface through other courses or professional affiliations. The goal of the course is to provide a structure, process, and frameworks for students’ consulting projects to ensure that they are carried out in a rigorous manner with clear milestones and deliverables. The course will have one weekly class session and one weekly meeting with a faculty mentor. Enrollment is by application only, which will take place in June-July.
