MSP 5900 Practicum in Public Service Management

In the Master of Science in Public Service Management (MSP) program, each practicum is individually designed. The student, agency supervisor, and the MSP Advisor work together to develop specific learning objectives. Appropriate strategies are designed to ensure that these pre-determined objectives are met. The MSP Advisor will visit the practicum location, to confer with both the student and agency supervisor, one or more times during the enrollment period. To receive credit for the three (3) semester hour experience, a minimum of 100 clock hours in practicum involvement is required. A day-to-day log of practicum activities must be maintained and turned in as a course requirement. In general, this course is considered an elective class; however, employing agencies/organizations may encourage this course as a way to meet specific needed work-related requirements. The practicum experience may not be substituted for a required class for graduation.
