CSC 33001

Working together as a learning community, social change fellows will consider foundations to leadership in the 21st century, the dynamics of the most pressing problems our world has ever considered, and the role of vocation, discernment, Catholic social teaching, and innovative leadership for social change necessary to tackle these issues upon graduation from Notre Dame. Section B will focus on work in the fractured world and the skill sets and tools needed for action and change.The fellows program seeks to support students who desire to combine their vocational goals with work for the common good. The course seeks to engage students in a rich interdisciplinary learning space to consider the multi-dimensional realities of 21st century social concerns and the skills and vocational needs necessary to bring about creative solutions and problem solving. The course is only one element of the co-curricular and curricular programming that is offered to the fellows. Students are required to participate in two multi-day, community-engaged immersions that focus on key themes of leadership development, skill building, vocational discernment, and CST as a foundation for changemaking.
