What Counts As Experiential Education?

<p>I'm a transfer student at UNC and this is my first semester. I'm a junior, so I only have a few semesters left to do everything. I've asked about what exactly counts as EE credit, but the answer I keep getting is, "you just need to do a service learning course." But what else counts? I know study abroad, but I don't have 10k laying around for a summer abroad. Are the volunteer programs (overseas) I see advertised everywhere something that would count as EE? Someone fill me in!</p>

<p>Examples of experiential education would be:</p>

<p>Mentored research
Approved service learning
Courses with substantial field work
Study abroad
Departmental or UNC internships</p>

<p>Look at the UNC 2013-2014 Undergraduate Bulletin and specifically at experiential education and all the courses that fullfill the EE requirement are listed by course number.</p>

<p>Here is the official listing. Type “Experiential Education” into the find bar.</p>

<p>Google “unc apples courses” and you should get a list of courses offered that satisfy the EE requirement; there are one or two in most subjects. I couldn’t afford to study abroad and ended up taking a Japanese archeology class [taught in English] to fulfill EE.</p>
