“ASEC 55100 International Engagement & Development Strategies” online course
Starts the week of October 19, 2020
This is a online, 8-week, three credit overview of cross disciplinary, cultural, theoretical frameworks, communication tools, and assessment methods applied to international agricultural development and engagement. Lectures and case studies on appropriate methods of development and engagement, international project planning, intercultural effectiveness, principles of sustainable agricultural, food security, community development, and program/project monitoring and evaluation will be the basis of assignments and group work.

We are very excited about this engaging course with 15 guest speaker/experts in international development to share their experiences and stories as examples as we review the considerations, theories and strategies of sustainable international development.
