GEOG 2275
This class is structured as a single large-group project. Then entire class of students (ranging from 15 - 30) Tackle a single project as a large group. Students are in human/ urban geography and the DASSSH program - Applied Social Sciences and Humanities. The students will collectively create a consultants' report as their final deliverable in the course. Because this is a large-group project this project needs significant scope and capacity. Ideal projects involve addressing a problem or issue related to helping professions, social services, government, and agencies addressing social sustainability. In this class students simulate the creation of a social services agency or consulting firm and take the community partner as a 'client'. Students have a range of skills including a foundation in the social sciences and humanities, as well as foundational skills in accounting, business entrepreneurship, computer skills and computer business applications skills.
