The possibilities are many, as students work with a faculty advisor to propose and execute a project related to their degree. The practicum may entail (but is not limited to): the planning of a conference, either at the University or in their community; the execution of an activist event such as a rally; the publication of a collection of essays; the launch of a web site; the production of a documentary; the writing of a business plan; or the application of a grant.

IDS 396Introduction to Global Studies Three credit hours
The purpose of the course is to promote an understanding of global awareness and the interconnectedness of the global human population as well as its dynamic interactions with the natural world. This requires an appreciation of the interconnectedness of global and local events, processes, and structures. Toward this end, students examine a range and diversity of global topics. Global Studies is an interdisciplinary inquiry into the developments that have and will continue to shape the interconnectedness of people and places around the world. It employs critical analyses of the processes that have contributed to both the complexity and variety of our world societies and to the common features of the changing human and natural environments. It begins with basic questions: How do people’s struggles to survive connect them across time and space? What common features are there in the dynamics of conflict for people in different regions with similar experiences? How do apparently local issues or developments in one region of the world have profound impacts on people across the globe? Global Studies is much more than just the tracking and description of the elements of globalization, a process that has been going on since human communities first began migrating beyond the confines of their geographic origins. It is about the ways we both see and affect each other, and how people, states, societies, and the global community struggle to reconcile common individual and local interests with broader worldwide interests. Global Studies is, therefore, the study of us, and the world we share from a variety of perspectives.
