Examples: A Psychology student can choose to do ministry practicum because they see themselves working in pastoral care & counseling OR marketplace because they see themselves opening their own practice. A Business student can choose to do ministry practicum because they want to be a pastor but was encouraged to get a business degree so they can run a successful organization.
