Connect with Our Community Partners

Each fall community partners and non-profit agencies are invited to campus to share with the BGSU campus the variety of volunteer, internship, and employment opportunities available. If you are looking for a simple one stop shop for these type of opportunities, then look no further. The Volunteer and Community Partnership Fair is the place.

Service-Learning Courses

These courses are focused on learning through action. This is done by fostering partnerships with local community non-profits and applying academic content to community issues. If you are a student searching for a more hands-on learning experience, then consider talking a service-learning course.
