Service-learning
Service-learning provides students with the opportunity to engage in case management while improving their capacity for self-awareness, compassion, and community outreach. In partnership with human service organizations and Indigenous communities, the veterinary program at the University of Calgary offers multiple opportunities for students to engage in service-learning. Projects in this field explore the impact of these experiences on student learning and perceptions, staff and faculty perceptions, and involve the community in program development.
