Seminar in Global Training

Starting with the fall 2009 term, this course will be renumbered as GST 6110.

This is a three-month course that prepares students to engage in independent research, distance, and online learning, with a culminating experience in a select country or countries. The first part of the course is preparation and orientation to the country or countries being studied; this is done through on-campus meetings or online with the professor. The second part is the culminating experience in the country over two or three weeks. Students are led by faculty to various global locations. Through site visits, guest lectures, and on-the-ground experiences, students advance their own research questions and develop their own analyses. The final part is a debriefing on-campus at Northeastern or online with the professor; it customizes the experience to the individual professional development needs of each student. In general, each course provides students with an in-depth overview of that country's politics, economics, history, society, and/or language.
