Nonprofit Fellows Info Session
Past Event
Tuesday, October 1, 2019 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM EDT
Enterprise Hall, 400
The Nonprofit Fellows are a select group of students who earn a minor in Nonprofit Studies through a semester-long immersion experience. The 20 - 25 Nonprofit Fellows are enrolled in the three courses and complete a 6-credit internship with a local nonprofit organization. The program is offered by the School of Integrative Studies in partnership with the Schar School of Policy and Government.
The program emphasizes:
- Personal attention from faculty. Enjoy small sized classes taught by leaders in the academic and local nonprofit community.
- Experiential learning. Students have a significant internship experience with a local nonprofit organization. Full-day field trips will take students to nonprofit organizations in Northern Virginia and Washington DC.
- Integrated learning. The faculty integrate learning across all three courses. The experiential learning from the internship is also linked to course assignments and class discussions.
- A community of highly motivated learners.
Courses are held two days a week on George Mason's Fairfax campus.
