Engaged Learning Requirement

The Engaged Learning Requirement was instituted in 2012 as part of the University Core Curriculum. Engaged Learning courses provide students with structured, hands-on learning experiences taking classroom learning further in one of the spheres of Academic Internship, Fieldwork, Public Performance, Service-Learning, or Undergraduate Research, and guiding them in making an academic synthesis. Many Engaged Learning courses are either required or optional within students' majors and minors; many Engaged Learning courses also may be taken independently as general electives outside the major or minor. Approval for courses to serve as Engaged Learning options, on a permanent or semester-specific basis, and documentation of some aspects of Engaged Learning experiences, are overseen by the Center for Engaged Learning, Teaching, and Scholarship.

Permanent Engaged Learning status for a course, once it has been approved, can be added to its permanent coding in LOCUS via a Request in CIM: the Engaged Learning Subcommittee's letter of approval will be the crucial Supporting Document.

Semester-Specific, section-specific Engaged Learning status for an individual class section also must be coded for that section in the Class Schedule, as the Engaged Learning Subcommittee's letter of approval will explain: the academic unit offering the class should work with Registration & Records to ensure the section reflects its status accurately.
