Students

Community based research, creative projects, and learning are holistic research, teaching and learning strategies that enrich the learning experience, teach civic responsibility, and strengthen partnerships with our communities. Faculty, students, and community partners collaborate intentionally with the goal of establishing a project for the common good that is grounded in reciprocity and equity.
