Outside-The-Classroom: Learning at its Finest

At Seton Hall, we don’t believe that a comprehensive education takes place entirely in the classroom. That’s why we partner with a wealth of companies, organizations and even countries across the globe to incorporate real-world experiences into our programs. Here are just a few examples of opportunities offered to our students:

  Students in the M.A.. in Applied Behavior Analysis program can get involved with the Seton Center for Community and Population Health, which partners with community health agencies focused on improving the health status of N.J. residents.

 College of Human Development, Culture, and Media students in the ABA program complete two practicum courses during which they are placed in local, highly regarded ABA agencies and schools with Affiliation Agreements through Seton Hall University.

 College of Nursing students will have clinical experiences in some of New Jersey’s best hospitals and agencies in healthcare systems such as Hackensack Meridian Health, RWJBarnabas Health and Atlantic Health System.
