IN 395 - Leading Across Cultures: Internship Seminar

Students enrolled in an IES Abroad London internship are required to attend six 2-hour tutorials, convened at fortnightly intervals during the semester in addition to their work schedules. The tutorials are intended to complement and inform interns' experiential learning, and to foster their awareness and appreciation of associated issues, ideas, and practices. Seminar activities will present opportunities for interns to reflect, analyze, discuss, develop, and contextualize their understanding of the nature, purpose, and distinctive features of British workplace culture. The designated course assignments offer opportunities for interns to improve their interpersonal communication skills and to create a structured written record of their practical skill acquisition, critical thinking, personal qualities, and accomplishments.
