Getting Started

Here's where it all begins. The Practicum can easily be completed in three steps. Once you identify a project, you must:

  • Complete a proposal,
  • Pass the class,
  • Enroll in CAT 125.

The most important part of this process is choosing a project and submitting the proposal. This step will kick your Practicum into gear.

Follow the links below to learn about each step. There are information sessions, office hours, new projects, and special events to guide you towards a project that is rewarding and successful. Don't skip steps. We can guarantee that you'll enjoy all that the Practicum has to offer.
