The Experiential Education Committee works with School of Social Work faculty and adjuncts to bring engaging activities into their courses or other learning platforms. Activities are structured to promote awareness of the importance of connecting knowledge and theories learned in courses to real-life scenarios or situations. The committee provides resources and guidance to faculty through collaboration and assists them in incorporating experiential education in their courses. This is accomplished through building and implementing learning activities, faculty development opportunities, and mentoring faculty and adjuncts who are interested in implementing experiential education into a course, including service learning, study abroad, and inter-professional education activities.
