WSSS Practicum - Tufts University

RESEARCH PRACTICUM

The Practicum is required for all first-year students in the WSSS Program and offered in the Spring. Here students will work on an integrated assessment of a case study in small groups. The goals of the Practicum are to expose students to tools and thinking of integrated assessment early in their time here, and to provide a common experience as a bridge to getting to know each other. The case study for 2006-2007 will be an ongoing project of the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) - US, who have relocated to Tufts, Medford; their staff will be involved in the class. The practicum will be headed by Paul Kirshen, assisted by the school coordinators.
