Civic Action Blueprint Description:

Courses in the Civic Action Blueprint have been strategically selected to provide students with the skills, competencies, and confidence needed to engage in effective and ethical civic action.  Students will be equipped for the reciprocal pursuit of individual and common goals through social, professional, and technological networks.

Together, these courses offer the key skills of communication, social analysis, and historical and political understanding—as well as a deeper understanding of governmental processes, democratic traditions, community engagement, global realities, and your own ability to act and change the world around you.
