PFST495

Description: Students draw upon the resources of their core and concentration coursework to conduct an independent research project or practical field study at their place of employment, at a community organization, or at Winthrop University on a contemporary work-related issue. The research or practical field study will allow students to work on a question or problem of their choice. Students will apply ethical, critical, and professional principles to research, understand, and resolve their chosen issue. Students will produce a formal academic paper that reflects a deep understanding of the topic selected and includes correctly-formatted borrowed material and will make a formal presentation of their work to an audience of students and faculty members. Prerequisite: PFST 401 with grade of C- or better. Notes: Offered fall, spring, and summer.
