The Office of Community Engaged Learning (OCEL) works to provide opportunities for students to develop lifelong skills and learn more about how they can be a catalyst for social justice, as well as offer continued support for students taking part in community engagement. Listed below are the many advantages associated with community engagement, and the various ways that students can get involved.

  1. Enhance their learning and enthusiasm for the subject area of CEL courses
  2. Enrich their resume
  3. Refine their career goals
  4. Better develop disciplinary skills from applications in real world settings
  5. Achieve a higher level of confidence through reflection, improved competency, and knowledge beyond the classroom
