The Center for Community Engagement provides faculty and students with opportunities to engage the world in sustained, collaborative, reflective and meaningful ways that enrich an innovative liberal arts education. It's part of a college-wide integrative learning initiative that incorporates what research and experience suggest—that students consolidate their learning most effectively and gain the most from their Amherst education by putting ideas to work in the world and in contexts that allow them to learn by doing.
We support community-based learning courses, undergraduate research, creative endeavors, and partnerships on and off campus.
