Report your community engagement projects by Oct. 1

For the past year, a diverse working group has been leading an initiative to advance the University's community engagement efforts and receive the Carnegie Foundation's Elective Classification for Community Engagement. This would formally recognize the impressive range of community engagement projects across the University and provide a comprehensive picture of that engagement to stakeholders throughout Arizona, the nation and world. 

Contribute to the application process 

The working group is conducting a self-study to gather information about community-engaged teaching, research, outreach and service initiatives at the University.

If you are involved in community-engaged projects, please complete this webform by Oct. 1.  

  • It should take no more than five to 10 minutes of your time.
  • It can be completed by someone else on your behalf.

This form will help us gather a brief description of your projects. Examples may include:

  • Collaborating with a community partner on a course you are teaching.
  • Offering a community-based internship.
  • Helping your department or unit with a community service project.
  • Participating in any number of other forms of community engagement. 

Sharing your community-engaged work

Understanding the breadth and depth of our community engagement will help us develop more effective and equitable practices and recognize individuals and programs across the University who make a difference in our communities.
