Areas of Engaged Learning:

Students produce and share creative work for community centered audiences, supported by U-M’s rich artistic and academic resources.

Entrepreneurship

Students foster ventures built on understanding customer and stakeholder needs.

Solving Real World Problems

Hands-on projects emphasize “learning by doing,” reflection, and skill development in real-world contexts.

International Experiences

Immersive global programs challenge cultural assumptions and build intercultural competences.
