Units: 4-0-5

This seminar is the first in a year-long series of courses. It is part of

Haitian Students Alliance. The seminar will prepare students to work with
community partners in Haiti to identify development projects and perform
the necessary fieldwork to refine the problem definition. Topics include
appropriate technology for development, basic Creole language skills,
history and culture of Haiti, and fieldwork methodology. Assignments
include real-world design examples, focusing on community and village-scale
problems. Students will have the opportunity to participate in an IAP
fieldtrip to Haiti and continue their work in a Spring Term design seminar.
Enrollment is limited.
