Curriculum Fit |
This
will be the capstone course for a proposed minor in Social Informatics. We expect it to attract students
interested in the relationship between information and communication
technology (ICT) and social change.
Because the internship will offer students practical experience as
well as theoretical reflection, we expect it will become a popular
opportunity. |
