ASU encourages students to engage in volunteer work, community service and community-engaged learning. Opportunities might include mentoring or serving meals, supporting a food pantry or environmental project, advocating for a public cause, or collaborating with a community partner through a course. Community-engaged learning connects academic and civic knowledge with community-identified interests, needs or public concerns, allowing students and partners to learn from one another and contribute to shared goals. These experiences can build empathy and social responsibility while helping you gain hands-on experience, strengthen career-relevant skills, build your resume and expand your professional network.
