Engaged University

The Collaborative is conducting research into innovative models of the engaged university, particularly those being implemented outside the United States. Ultimately, our goal is to develop an International Clearinghouse on the Engaged University.

A report of civic university activities now underway in Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, and Latin America will be available in the early summer of 2002. The report will be posted on this site at that time. Please check back.

Our Programs & Activities for The Engaged University page contains more information about our work on the campus of the University of Maryland at College Park, nationally within the U.S. and globally.
