The experience will provide students with opportunities to apply knowledge and skills gained from previous course work. Further, students will expand their knowledge through a capstone project. Weekly faculty led discussions will be a part of the requirement of the course. Examples of field placements include childcare settings, Headstart classrooms, Early Childhood Family Education Centers, and social service agencies focusing on children’s wellbeing. pre-req: Early Childhood Studies major, minimum 90 credits and department consent
