To experience how a liberal arts education provides a foundation for future professional success; establish academic, personal, and professional goals; and develop and demonstrate tools and strategies for personal and professional growth, each student will undertake a 1-credit hour (minimum) Professional Development Experience (PDE 400 ) after completing 60 hours. A PDE generally takes the form of an internship although other high-impact experiences that support professional development may be considered.

Each student will also take a 1 credit hour Professional Practice Seminar (PDE 350 ). This course will give students the opportunity to reflect on their liberal arts education, explore professional and career choices and prepare for future professional success.
