LAUNCH YOUR IDEAS

Group projects have turned into game-changing products right here on campus.

Organizations like eHUB are here to help get a project off the ground or get the product to market — all while you pursue your degree.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Gain hands-on experience in the non-profit sector when you choose a placement with a local organization.

Community Service-Learning (CSL) allows you to give back to the community while drawing real-life connections to social issues.

You can also add a Certificate in Community Engagement and Service-Learning to your degree when you complete more than one CSL course.
