Course Description:
In this course, students will apply design thinking and career development theory to better understand the link between their liberal arts education and their life after college. Students will identify individual goals, assess their skills and talents, explore career options, analyze the job market, effectively use employment search tools, and contemplate and investigate how meaning and purpose can be infused into any career. Students will rely on self-reflection and understanding the value of experiential education in the exploration and decision-making process. Students will evaluate how to design their lives in the changing landscape of work.
Through readings, class discussions, and assignments, students will design a plan that will guide their career and academic decision making throughout the remainder of their Trinity College experience. |
