Internship is a valuable opportunity to experientially understand the meaning of “work”. The purpose of this course is to understand, through experience, the social significance and your personal value of working in the non-profit organizations.
You will participate in a 1-month internship during the summer vacation. Before going to internship, you will learn the basic manners and attitudes in classroom lectures during the spring semester. After internship, in the fall semester, you will review your experience, together with other members of the class. You will also think about your career development. The registration of this course is in the spring semester, but the course activities continue in the summer vacation and the fall semester.
During the internship period, you need to be fully independent and responsible for your activities. As for the internship destinations, you can either chose from the list provided by the lecturer, or negotiate directly with an organization of your choice. (See the notes below for details.)
