Internship Opportunities

​​​​​​
Service Learning

Student Development is critical to the mission of the Steans Center and the curriculum of Community Service Studies. All of the programs at Steans are positioned to equip students with the knowledge and experience necessary to transform them into future leaders and socially-engaged citizens. This comes in part from the hands-on, real world approach of community-based service learning that students experience through coursework, training, workshops, and privilege/social justice reflections.

There are many opportunities at the Steans Center for students to get involved with community-based service learning. Discover the ways that you can become involved through paid service opportunities.
