About Service Learning
UM’s Faculty Senate recently approved the Service Learning Course Designation. Service Learning courses are marked in the Course Offering Directory and on student transcripts. Faculty may request this special designation for courses that contain a community service element.
Community agencies are encouraged to articulate need for service learning projects. Read more about how to incorporate a service learning course at your community agency.
For more information on the Service Learning course designation, please contact Andrea Vernon at andrea.vernon@mso.umt.edu
