Service-Learning Resources

Campus Compact provides a host of resources for faculty, including program models, sample syllabi, and faculty-development programs. There are two North Carolina state service learning models of note: Elon University’s Kernodle Center for Service Learning and the Western Carolina Service Learning Fellows Program.

In 2007, a Service Learning Faculty-Staff Interest Group was formed on campus and a Service Learning and Civic Engagement Background Survey was conducted. Some information about UNC Charlotte student engagement in service learning is available in the results of 2010 Student Voice survey, which highlights volunteer sites by college.

Tenure and Promotion Information

In 2012, the Faculty Council moved to revise UNC Charlotte’s tenure and promotion guidelines in the Academic Personnel Procedures Handbook to reflect the University’s commitment to community engaged scholarship, teaching, and public service. This new language allows community-based research conducted with local partners to qualify as scholarship for tenure and promotion purposes at the institutional level.
