In Service of the Greater Good

Service-learning is more than volunteering; it’s an intentional part of Creighton’s academic experience. Students engage with communities locally and globally through coursework, immersive programs and partnerships that connect learning with action. These experiences offer an opportunity for reflection and invite students to consider how their education can serve others. 

“I chose Creighton because I knew I would be set up for success here. With the many academic offerings, extracurricular opportunities, incredible resources committed to students' success and the success rate...I knew I would find my place here.”
