Applications for MSU's 2020 Community-Engaged Learning Fellows program due by Feb. 21

Feb. 21 is the deadline to submit an application for Mississippi State's 2020 Community-Engaged Learning (CEL) Fellows program.

Sponsored by the Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President, the Center for Community-Engaged Learning and the Center for Teaching and Learning, this three-week program supports instructional faculty and staff in integrating community-engaged learning into their formal or non-formal teaching.

Community-engaged learning is a high impact educational practice that improves student engagement, learning and development, social responsibility and active citizenship.

The CEL Fellows program will meet in May 2020, and CEL Fellows will learn community-engaged learning theory, course design, and pedagogy. Participants will receive a $1,000 course or research development award, peer support, and one-on-one assistance to design a new community-engaged learning course or modify an existing course.

Additional information about the CEL Fellows program, including an application, is available at https://www.ccel.msstate.edu/faculty/workshops.

Please contact Michelle Garraway, CCEL program coordinator, at michelle.garraway@msstate.edu or 662-325-2370 for additional information or with any questions.
