Community Partnership Interest Form
Have a project that would benefit from the involvement of a student or students? Want to collaborate with a faculty member? Tell us what you need, and the CLAS Center for Experiential Learning will connect you with people from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences who can help!
Options include:
- partnering with a faculty or staff member, student, or group of students for a short-term project (for instance, a project with one class for one semester)
- partnering with a faculty or staff member, student, or group of students for a long-term project or a series of projects (for instance, a multi-disciplinary project involving more than one faculty/staff member and/or courses for more than one semester)
- employing a student as an intern
- consulting a faculty member
- participating in our community-based learning work study program
Community-based learning work study enables students to be employed off-campus using federal work study awards. The federal work study award pays 75% of the student's wages, and the community partner organization (which must be a non-profit) pays the other 25%. The default wage is minimum wage, though some community partners choose to pay more. Positions should involve work which connects meaningfully to a student's course of study and/or to their career goals.
