The Office of Community Engagement and Outreach is pleased to announce a call for applications for the Community Engagement Academy (CEA).  The interdisciplinary professional development program is designed for new UT faculty (0-3 years), postdocs, and graduate students who want to learn the foundations of community engagement and engaged scholarship and apply knowledge to research and practice.

CEA provides background literature, facilitated discussion, mentoring, and presentations designed to increase their knowledge and enhance their practice of community-engaged scholarship throughout Knoxville and East Tennessee by creating new mutually beneficial partnerships and/or building upon existing ones.

For full consideration, please visit Community Engagement Academy page and submit your interest letter, resume, and chair’s endorsement statement by noon on August 31.

Inquiries should be sent to communityengagement@utk.edu.
