Service learning engages you in meeting campus and community needs while earning credit toward your degree and building your resume for future employers.
You take a course that includes a service project and actively reflect on your experience and its connections to your understanding of the course subject matter. The service and reflection lead you to a deeper understanding of the course material and your own values. This combination offers insight into your values, helps you explore your purpose, and cultivates empathy, compassion, and a commitment to your community.
In a School of Business capstone course, students apply all the functional areas of business such as accounting, finance, human resources, management, and marketing to an overall real-world strategy for a small business or local organization. Students complete interviews, review industry reports, and conduct a SWOT analysis.
