All Education Studies Scholars complete a field experience: a prolonged work/volunteer experience in education research, policy, or practice. Field experiences are either full-time summer placements (at least 8 weeks) or part-time, full-year placements (several hours per week during the academic year). They can take place before or after acceptance to the Scholars Intensive Certificate.
Students have fulfilled this requirement in many different ways—as tutors, camp counselors, research assistants, and interns at a variety of organizations. Read student-created guides to courses and internships here.
