Service Learning: Connecting College and Community
Service learning is a form of experiential education that partners academic instruction with community service. Students learn through participation in thoughtfully organized service activities that are course relevant and meet actual community needs.
Each semester approximately 60 courses at MiraCosta offer a service component either as an option or a requirement. Students are placed in a variety of non-profit organizations and public schools where they provide support services. These placements allow students to apply course theory in real world settings while making valuable community contributions.
