Service Learning
About Service Learning
߲ݴý supports experiential learning both in and out of the classroom. The Service Learning Coordinator works with faculty and students to integrate hands-on work with non-profit and governmental agencies with academic learning. By incorporating meaningful work in the community with instruction and reflection activities, the learning is enriched. The work is reciprocal partnership, providing students the opportunity to engage in civic responsibility and application of coursework concepts while fulfilling a need in a local agency and strengthening the surrounding community.
Service Learning Opportunities
If you are exploring options for a community engagement project for a course you are taking, the Service Learning Coordinator can work with you and your instructor to make connections for projects in the community through non-profit service agencies.

You are also invited to contact the Service Learning Coordinator and to explore our listing of community partners.
