Welcome!

Welcome to the start of a brand new semester! This is a transformative course that will challenge you to think critically and deeply about your experiences as a Morganite.

Course Overview: During this course, students will undertake a significant experiential learning opportunity, typically with as an internship/external professional experience with a company, non-profit, governmental, or community organization. The internship/external professional experience represents an educational opportunity that will help students apply and put into action what they have learned throughout the rest of their Morgan State coursework in a “real world setting.” Through meaningful, in-depth reflection and analysis, students will gain an understanding of the connections between their field experience and Morgan coursework. Students will explore how the integration of their experiences has prepared them to solve specific problems and/or lead within their field.

Learning Modules: The main modules in this course are divided into weeks. Week 1 begins on the first day of courses, with Week 1 assignments being due during the first week of courses. It is imperative that students consistently log into the course and complete each module during the week it is assigned.
