The Office of Engaged Scholarship and Learning
BRIDGING STUDENTS, FACULTY, AND COMMUNITY
You need more than just your transcript to land your dream job – you need experience.
The Office of Engaged Scholarship & Learning is here to help you find opportunities to apply your skills and knowledge in the real-world, so that when you walk across the stage at graduation, you are ready to take the next step.
Undergraduate Research
Through research projects, students have the opportunity to apply their academic knowledge to real-world problems, develop critical thinking skills, and make meaningful contributions to their communities.
Creative Works
Creative Works are an integral part of the Engaged Scholarship and Learning Office's approach to learning and scholarship. From art and music to writing and film, creative works provide a powerful medium for exploring and addressing important social issues.
Service Learning
Service learning is a beneficial way to enrich your classes at the university, advance your career, network with professionals, and make an impact in your community. Service learning combines learning goals in a course and service in the community to enhance student growth and common good.
