About this event
Today [Oct. 17] by 11:59 p.m. is the deadline to apply for Mississippi State University's 2019 Excellence in Community Engagement Awards, which recognize outstanding examples of community engagement by faculty, staff and students.
MSU Excellence in CE Awards will be granted in four areas: Community-Engaged Service, Community-Engaged Teaching and Learning, Community-Engaged Research, and Scholarship of Engagement. Each award recipient will receive $3,000 to further community engagement within MSU's tri-fold mission of learning, research and service.
Community engagement as defined by MSU describes collaboration between MSU and partnering communities for the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources in a context of partnership and reciprocity. Communities are broadly defined as groups of people affiliated by geographic proximity or special interests at the local, state, regional, national or global levels.
The MSU CE Awards are sponsored by the Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President, MSU Extension Service, Office of the Vice President for Research and Economic Development, and the Center for Community-Engaged Learning.
