Service-Learning is a significant pedagogy that can be used to fulfill Drake University's mission to provide an exceptional learning environment that prepares students for meaningful personal lives, professional accomplishments, and responsible global citizenship. For the past twenty years, research has shown service-learning fosters one of the best experiential and collaborative-learning environments for students, faculty, staff, and the community. Service-Learning is designed to link service to learning outcomes in order to deepen the student's development process. It goes beyond charitable work and "doing good." It is a partnership, meeting a community need, while building the knowledge and skill sets of students.
Drake University Community Engaged Learning & Service aims to connect students and staff with community partners and causes in the Des Moines area and to help develop Civic Minded Professionals.
