is designed to provide students field experiences with community agencies to link academic work with meaningful community service.   That will benefit both the agency and the student.  Agencies will benefit with the infusion of enthusiastic students to assist in the delivery of services to their clients and students will develop a deeper understanding of their role as leaders in their communities as well as increase their civic and citizenship skills.  The Director of the undergraduate major will work in conjunction with the Career Development Center of Rutgers-Newark, and other campus units to place students in a viable internship.  A prerequisite for this course is completion of either PS4-The Urban Experience in the United States or PS5- The Urban Global Experience.

course will focus on aspects of public service as they are portrayed in the arts, literature, and various media.  Traditionally, the arts have long been considered a vital part of public service as they enhance the general cultural climate of the communities in which they are based.   Often vital issues are portrayed through artistic means as alternative methods to communicate community values, and desires for change.  This course will examine the impact and power of a range of artistic media on public service.
