The Center offers opportunities for faculty members and students to link learning inside and outside of the classroom, tackle problems that matter, or develop skills that they can apply in other settings. The CCE supports community-based learning courses, engaged research, and creative endeavors while helping to facilitate partnerships on campus and in the broader community.
