Community-Based聽Learning & Reseach courses offer undergraduate students the opportunity to experience service-learning as part of an existing course. Students complete 20 hours of community service or a service project related to their course content and facilitated by the faculty member.
CB聽courses are a great way for students to put their education to use and get practice with hands-on skill application. Examples of hour-based experiences in the past have included translation work in language courses, which can seen in the SPAN 458 example on this page.
