Practicum

Course #: ehs 698

Description:
The purpose of the graduate practicum is to provide students with a capstone experience in the fields of exercise of health sciences. This experiential course, which can be field- or laboratory-based, and located on site at UMass Boston or off-campus, provides an opportunity for students to apply relevant clinical, communications and management skills. The practicum is designed to support students' translation of knowledge acquired in prior EHS courses to actual skill-based practice. In close consultation with the course instructor and major advisor, the student is placed in an EHS department-approved site to complete a minimum of 100 hours of experience. In addition, the student attends a class meeting once per month. The classroom meetings provide a forum for students to reflect on and assess their practicum learning experiences with their course instructor and peers. Discussion extends beyond the student's skill practicum experience to include on-going evaluation or re-evaluation of career goals.
