The Centre for Global Studies celebrates the benefits of experiential learning opportunities, where students learn about and directly engage global issues through participation in community contexts. Such exercises may involve: students taking placements with local community groups; students participating in community development projects locally or internationally; students exploring problems in volunteering; and students participating in courses driven by engagement with and challenges directed from persons working in non academic vocations of interest to Global Studies. Faculty in the Centre for Global Studies direct students to these kinds of opportunities as they arise through non university programs. However there are also university based experiential learning opportunities offered regularly through the Centre for Global Studies and Huron University College more broadly.
