Social science departments, both nationally and internationally,
market boundless career destinations for their graduates but fail
to identify the pathways to these lucrative destinations, and
appear oblivious to the social forces that threaten their
existence, such as the discerning parent's investment in their
offspring's education and mounting individual student debt. This
book responds to these social forces, drawing on Michael Burawoy's
model of Public Sociology to show how a research-centred
experiential internship provides opportunities for students to draw
on their prior learning and realise their potential to create
pathways towards employment. The author demonstrates how a
specific, research-based course leading to employment with a
non-government organisation or government department was evaluated
and incrementally developed, giving voice to its multiple
beneficiaries. Designed for university teachers, this book will
appeal to those in social science departments who are using an
internship, service learning or capstone model for their senior
undergraduate classes.
