Overview: Experiential Learning

• Internships: When you work at an internship, you gain practical experience that complements the more theoretical lessons you learn in the classroom.
• Service Learning: Our students bring life to their academics by participating in service learning. We love how they apply their class content to real-world situations by helping to address pressing needs in the community or by supporting initiation on campus.
• Study Away/Study Abroad: Our travel courses are academic courses that also meet regularly on campus before and following travel to places like England, France, and (new this year) Hawaii!
• Undergraduate Research: At MCLA, we take seriously our responsibility to provide research opportunities.  Our Undergraduate Research Program encompasses independent scholarly activity by students in the arts, humanities, and sciences.  We celebrate this research at an annual spring semester Undergraduate Research Conference.

The list above contains just some of what we consider "High Impact" or "Experiential" learning. You can use this section to document and reflect on any experiential learning you engage in at MCLA.
