The Center for Community-Engaged Learning (CCEL) is open to all students, faculty, staff, and community members at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. We focus on immersing students in the local community through volunteering, service-learning classes, and other unique experiential opportunities. CCEL works with partners to provide opportunities for students to engage in off-campus experiential learning through community work and place-based educational programs. Whether academically-based or co-curricular, these experiences complement classroom learning, foster personal, professional and civic development, and allow students to work with others to enhance the well-being of our communities.
