MLS 591 - Applied Leadership Internship (3 cr.)

This course is intended to provide students with experience in applying leadership theory to a real work environment. Each student must select an appropriate site for the internship and identify an on-site supervisor. Students work with a faculty sponsor and the on-site supervisor to both design a learning and action plan and select work experiences that will support that plan. Students spend 120-150 hours at the internship site and provide periodic and/or summary reports on the outcomes of their experience. The course is appropriate for students with little or no managerial level work experience.
