There are a few spaces remaining for the 2012 EPICS Workshop
Integrating Design and Community Engagement within Curriculum
May 30 – June 1, 2012
Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana
Whether you are interested in becoming part of the EPICS program, or want to learn how you can integrate design and community engagement in your curriculum, the EPICS Workshop will provide information, tools, and resources needed to get an EPICS program up and going. It will be facilitated by the directors of EPICS with experience from more than 50 faculty workshops on EPICS, service-learning and design. Topics include course/curriculum, capstone courses, entrepreneurship, partnerships, institutional support, and assessment, evaluation. The workshop will actively engage participants to learn the principles and include presentations, discussions and individual reflections so that participants can develop a customized plan that can be applied to their own institution.
Workshop registration is free but registration is REQUIRED. Meals during the workshop are included in registration but participants are expected to cover their own travel and lodging costs.
