What is Service Learning at MSUB?“Service Learning is an educational experience and a teaching method that
focuses on learning through community projects. Projects enable students to apply academic knowledge and critical thinking skills to benefit the community while students gain a deeper understanding of course content and the importance of civic engagement.”
