LABR 399 - Labor and Workplace Studies Field Work (4 Credits)

Prerequisite: None
This course augments traditional classroom-based learning with experiential learning in a community setting and direct engagement in labor and workplace issues. In it, individuals intern for a labor union or labor-related organization with the guidance and supervision of a mentor. The internship is taken in conjunction with a weekly class where students report on their internship projects, bring questions and problems, and discuss readings directly relevant to the placement.
