Community Engagement

Northern Illinois University is recognized by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as an “Engaged Institution,” which collaborates with the larger community in the context of partnership and reciprocity. While the Division of Outreach, Engagement and Regional Development provides leadership, partnership and support for community engagement efforts, these efforts occur across all seven colleges and the many centers and divisions at NIU.

This collection showcases the research, artistry and scholarship of NIU faculty, students and staff that explores and advances the field of community engagement.
