Civic Engagement
Division
of Student Affairs
Civic engagement encompasses active citizenship, community
involvement, advocacy, awareness of social issues and
injustices, and the development of personal and social responsibility. It requires students to involve themselves
in society with the intent to better the world around them.
There are many opportunities for students, faculty and staff to
civically engage at Towson University.
Students, Faculty and Staff of Towson University are committed
to being civically engaged with the greater Baltimore community.
In 2008, Towson University is honored to have been recognized by
the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching in both
categories of: Curricular Engagement and Outreach & Partnership.
To read more about the elite recognition please refer to the TU
in the Community website. This recognition confirmed
the University's commitment to bettering the community and has
set the foundation for the programs offered through the
Department of Civic Engagement.
