Every semester, UNO students participate in community engagement experiences that support individual opportunities and learning, while also benefiting the community.
What are some examples of community engagement?
- Volunteering for a local nonprofit
- Class projects that involve a nonprofit in the community while adding to your learning experiences in the classroom (service learning or community-based learning).
- Internships that provide real-world experiences and benefit the community.
- Practica brings you into the community while meeting the requirements of your academic program (credit or program requirement).
- Student research that supports your academic and career goals that also examine or benefits a community problem or identifies solutions.
