UMass Dartmouth, in partnership with Campus Compact, invites you to please join the 2022 Engaged Scholarship Symposium at the UMass Dartmouth, Clair T. Carney Library, Grand Reading Room.   Lunch will be served in person. Registration also includes a virtual option.

Historically, higher education has been criticized for hiding in the Ivory Tower – isolating ourselves from our communities and producing irrelevant research. The Engaged Scholarship Symposium is designed to celebrate the usefulness of scholarship in shaping policy and enriching our communities. Participants will be exposed to strategies for involving students in active teaching, research and examples of engaged scholarship across many disciplines. The program is attached for your review. Andrew Hoffman, the keynote, will discuss his new book “The Engaged Scholar: Expanding the Impact of Academic Research in Today’s World.”  Following the keynote, four UMass Dartmouth faculty will present their engaged scholarship.

This event is free, but registration is required. You may register at:  https://es-symposium-2022.eventbrite.com/
