Definition
Service Learning combines community service and civic engagement with academic study, allowing individuals to apply their knowledge and skills learned in the classroom while volunteering their time and service to the community. Service Learning enriches learning, teaches civic responsibility, fosters a sense of caring for others, strengthens communities, and promotes reflective and critical thinking.
Mission
Service Learning at OSUIT is to provide & promote opportunities to students in an environment outside the classroom in order to prepare and sustain a diverse student body as competitive members of a world-class workforce and contributing members of society.
Are you volunteering on campus?
Departments are responsible for having volunteers complete the Volunteer Form before they volunteer in your area. Once completed, departments are responsible for submitting the completed forms to Human Resources prior to the volunteer event.
