Senior Experience
The Senior Experience Program is to be a capstone project for members of the senior class. In essence, it will be the culmination of four years of study and will be the last formal learning experience for a Notre Dame student. The desired outcome of this experienced-based project would be to allow students to reflect upon their Notre Dame experience and also look to the future. The project should be based upon an area of interest to the student.
Goals of the Senior Experience Program:
To serve as a model for learning in the future
To allow students to explore an interest or desire
To give a different kind of learning experience
To put knowledge and skills into practice
To help with direction and focus for the future
To prove that learning happens everywhere - even outside of the classroom
Possible Projects include internships with an organization, corporation or non-profit. An on-going community service project could also fulfill the requirements.
