Eastern Washington University is committed to developing opportunities for students that are transformative and cultivate “professionally, socially and culturally engaged leaders, citizens and communities.” We recognize that community engagement builds recognition, fosters support and expands opportunities for students, faculty, staff and graduates as well as the communities we serve.
EWU’s Office of Community Engagement connects the campus to the wider community through meaningful, reciprocal partnerships in order to enrich student learning, address critical community need and foster a culture of civic responsibility and community engagement.
This work is accomplished by:
- Providing students with opportunities to engage in meaningful service both in and out of the classroom.
- Supporting faculty practice in service-learning, community-based research, and community-engaged scholarship and creative activities.
- Developing mutually beneficial partnerships to strengthen our local, regional and global communities.
