Service learning enables you to get involved in the community while earning credit toward your degree.
You take a course that includes participating in a service project or internship, and then actively reflecting on it. The service and reflection give you a deeper understanding of the course’s topic, offer insight into your values, and cultivate your empathy and compassion.
You’ll solve real problems that affect real people—a skill you can use in any profession. You’ll also connect with local leaders, broaden your experiences, and enhance your resume.
