Community-Engaged Teaching & Research Fund
The fund will be administered by the director of Community-Engaged Teaching & Research (CETR) The purpose of the fund is to recognize that community-engaged teaching is a form of experiential learning. This fund supports the work of CETR’s two main programs: 1) Supporting students who are participating in or supporting service-learning courses, wherein students and faculty work with community partners to reinforce and build upon concepts learned in the classroom. 2) Supporting engaged research where faculty, community partners, and students collaboratively pursue projects related directly to the impact and practice of service and community engagement; or research questions that are co-identified with broader social implications. The fund may be used for such expenses that include but are not limited to: any expenses related to student leadership programs; supporting student access to participation in community engagement and community partner programs; and supporting research by Northeastern faculty and/or community partners. Gifts in any amount may be made to the fund at any time by any interested donors. This fund will only receive those gifts that have no deliverables required by donors.
