The Minor in Civic Engagement & Social Entrepreneurship

Summary:
This interdisciplinary program will offer an 18- credit minor for students who wish to develop the perspective and analytical skills required of social entrepreneurs— individuals who desire to use their training and insight to engage and solve some of the most pressing problems in our society.   Although there are programs in this area across the United States, CNU’s minor would be the first in this region and would provide a focus for altruistic young leaders at the University. To view the Minor Curriculum, please click: Curriculum for Minor in CESE.

The Minor will be available at the  start of the Fall 2009 Semester.  To learn more about this opportunity, please fill out the online form below.  Dr. Roberta Rosenberg will follow up with you to discuss your participation.

Every day was meaningful.  Some of the kids even referred to me as their big sister!  Working with kids and helping out in the community related to what I was learning in my Social Work class.
