All of the activities and assignments in this seminar contribute to the achievement of the four primary goals: 1) Strengthen students’ analytical framework for their internship experience in the Detroit community and deepen understanding of the subjective motivations for their interest in this work; 2) Draw intellectual connections among a diverse array of student internship experiences that builds our classroom community as well as enhances opportunities for organizational collaboration; 3) Deepen understanding of the contemporary context that underpins student internship experiences in Detroit — i.e., the social, economic, cultural and political; 4) Share student internship experiences and accumulated knowledge with the wider world through public forums such as community blogging, presentations, and other mediums.
While open to any U-M undergraduate student, this course is part of the full curriculum for students accepted into the Semester in Detroit Program. Students interested in this class might want to consider applying to spend the entire fall 2022 semester off-campus in Detroit.
