Give to experiential learning

Experiential learning at Â鶹´«Ã½ is an opportunity for students to take what they’ve learned in the classroom and apply it to real-world experiences.

Experience is the greatest teacher

At Â鶹´«Ã½, experiential learning can take many forms, including: service learning and community-based projects, in-class simulation, live performances, field trips , study abroad opportunities, and competitions, moots, and hackathons .

When students participate in experiential learning opportunities, they return to the classroom with fresh perspectives, new-found confidence, and renewed commitment to their studies. They gain a deeper understanding, a broader skillset, and a clear direction for their post-grad life and careers.
