This course is the first in a sequence two courses: a 2-credit spring course and a 1 credit summer course. The spring course features weekly meetings taught by faculty experts in community-engaged collaboration, project management, leadership, and intercultural competence. The summer course consists of an intensive, collaborative, community-inspired project. This year's course offers two summer options: 1) A three-week immersive in Santiago, Chile where students work on a project related to energy, environment, and health with an NGO in the local community. 2) A continuation of our ongoing project in Zanzibar, Tanzania with in-country community partners, the State University of Zanzibar (SUZA), Blue Economy Ministry, and others. Professor Mary Khatib and students from SUZA will come to Boston to work collaboratively with our students in bringing to life recommendations outlined in policy briefs written by the 2024Working For and With Communitiesteam: local governance and educational solutions to Zanzibar's challenges around increasing tourism as well as social and climate change. Students must apply to participate in this course. Selected students will work on these projects in small interdisciplinary teams. For more information about the course and the application, please emailSchiller.Institute@bc.edu. Note: This course sequence offers an in-depth opportunity to develop and apply specialized knowledge, and to engage in formative experiences motivating personal growth. Students will be required to enroll in both course sections (spring and summer). Unfortunately, seniors are not eligible to take this course.
