SO/IN 395 - Supervised Public Service Internship Seminar

The internship is designed to offer students firsthand experience and involvement in Austrian non-profit-organizations and charities, enabling them to broaden their understanding of European society and non-profit culture. The accompanying weekly seminar allows reflection and observations about the experience and serves as a forum for questions that come up during the onset placement, as well as to put issues into academic perspective. The general aim of the seminar is to explore the meaning of team work and to reflect one’s own position as a social actor.
