CM401—Capstone Cross-Cultural Internship 1

This course is a structured, cross-cultural experience approved and facilitated by the BSWE internship coordinator and supervised by an on-field mentor from a foreign host ministry. The host ministry must reflect the basic philosophy and emphasis of First Baptist Church of Milford and its ministries. The mentor will ensure that the student receives exposure to predetermined core objectives and will evaluate the student’s interactions in the foreign culture in various aspects of cross-cultural ministry. In order to receive 9 credit hours, students must complete 600 contact hours with the foreign host ministry (20 consecutive weeks without leave). Normally, the student is registered for this class for the fall semester of his senior year; however, in some cases, internships may begin during the summer prior to the student’s senior year.
