Community Service Learning
Community Service Learning (CSL) is a type of experiential learning in which students engage in purposeful and structured learning experiences in partnership with non-profits or public organizations that meet a need identified by the community. The experiences provide reciprocal benefits for both the students and their community partners, and enhance students’ learning and development through the practice of critical self-reflection. The aim is to provide opportunities for students to extend their learning into the community and contribute to addressing social issues by applying their skills and knowledge. We do this through curricular and co-curricular programs.
