Signature Experience Requirement
All undergraduate students in Klesse College are required to participate in an approved signature experience opportunity as a condition of graduation. The signature experience requirement will engage students in educational opportunities that allow them to gain real-world experience in their field of study. Students must complete one experience in one of the following four experiential learning categories: internship, research, study abroad programs, and service-learning (INTERESTS). A description of each category is provided below.
Internship: A short-term, supervised period of activities carried out in an organization closely related to a student's field of study. Internships provide students the opportunity to put their skills into practice and explore career interests. Internships are full-time or part-time, credit or non-credit, and occur during the fall, spring, or summer semesters. Students may conduct internships in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. To earn academic credit for an internship, students must identify an opportunity that meets the conditions set by each Department/School and obtain approval. Co-op approval forms are available at Klesse College's website. The Student Success Center (SSC) serves as the central point of contact for industry professionals to connect with students regarding internship opportunities. Students can visit the SSC website to identify available internship opportunities.
Research: Participation in activities that promote academic inquiry and scientific discovery in a field closely related to a student's major of study. Examples of research activities include laboratory work, design research, literature review, data collection, data analysis, field assessment, and code development, among others. Research studies can be conducted in the student's home department or school; UTSA laboratories and studios; national laboratories; academic institutions; nonprofit, applied research, and development organizations; and research centers. Students must conduct research under the direction of a qualified supervisor and complete all appropriate training before engaging in research. Several Klesse College programs offer research courses that satisfy technical elective requirements. The Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR) supports undergraduate students' participation in research activities by identifying opportunities. Students can visit the OUR website to search for research opportunities throughout the nation. In addition, research-track professors, schools, departments, Klesse College Institutes and Centers, and the SSC offer students several research opportunities. Students and supervisors are encouraged to present their research findings in professional meetings and scientific publications.
Study Abroad Programs: International experiences expand students' worldview and provide them access to peculiar sites to obtain valuable knowledge relevant to their major. Architecture and Interior Design students have an international studies requirement in their respective curricula that is fulfilled via programming in Urbino, Italy. In addition, Architecture, Civil Engineering, Construction Science and Management, and Interior Design students can participate in a semester program in Urbino, Italy, that allows them to fulfill curriculum requirements while abroad. Students must consult their academic advisors to prepare a plan to complete prerequisite requirements for Urbino course offerings. Students must also be advised as to options by major, as there may specific related requirements/constraints. Klesse College also offers faculty-led summer programs that permit students to earn UTSA course credits in international settings. Klesse College study abroad opportunities are advertised by organizing departments or schools and the SSC. UTSA Study Abroad provides students several international opportunities, including exchange programs and programs through affiliated institutions. Students must consult about their plans with their Academic Advisors and determine how credits completed abroad may apply to their UTSA degree.
Service Learning: An experiential learning opportunity that allows students to offer solutions to problems and issues of public concern by applying the knowledge gained in the classroom. Klesse College offers service-learning design and design-build programs in which students partner with local and global community organizations to address human, community, and environmental needs. Klesse College's Engineering Projects in Community Service (EPICS) offers students the opportunity to work in multidisciplinary teams on long-term engineering-based design projects. EPICS courses are open to students from all disciplines; each student contributes expertise in their academic field. Each team consists of a mix of first-year students, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Students should consult their academic advisors on how to fulfill program requirements while enrolling in service-learning courses. Students can also participate in service-learning experiences through service-oriented organizations, such as Engineering without Borders, which assist less fortunate communities throughout the world. To satisfy the signature experience requirement, students must complete a community project and not simply enroll in an organization. Students can access the SSC website to identify the list of student organizations that have been granted a service-oriented designation. The Civic and Community-Engaged Leadership website hosts several service-learning initiatives that can be used to fulfill the Signature Experience requirement.
Students may choose to meet their signature experience requirement in one of two ways which are further described below:
A. completing a Klesse College course associated with an INTERESTS category with a grade of C- or better, or
B. successfully participating in an approved co-curricular experience.
Students must review their program of study requirements, as some programs within Klesse College have experiences embedded in their curriculum that can be applied to satisfy the College signature experience requirement. Students enrolled in Architecture and Interior Design programs must participate in an international signature experience. Students in the Construction Science and Management program must complete a required internship before graduation.
