The Civic Engagement Office provides opportunities for students to become involved in community service learning experiences through direct service and engagement.
Participation in civic engagement opportunities allows students to analyze complicated social issues, apply what they have learned in their areas of academic study, develop effective communication skills, and gain personal experiences through service in a multitude of areas. Through opportunities for community service at a distance and in-person students, can become involved in voter registration drives and other events that promote civic engagement.
Anyone interested in participating can stop by the office of Student Life & Engagement in the Jaguar Student Activities Center. We look forward to hearing from you.
The Area of Civic Engagement at Augusta University aims to provide students with civic educational programming and service opportunities that respond to local, regional and national societal issues and concerns. We create programming that prepares students for public living as productive citizens and members of the Augusta and beyond communities.
