Community Engagement Service
The Community Engagement Service (CES)of the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences aims to inform, advise, and support students regarding relevant (extra-curricular) work experience, with a strong focus on volunteer work.\ \ The CES is a counter or platform that brings together and coordinates supply and demand for ‘a helping hand’: students seeking experience, and societal organisations seeking help.\ \ The activities in question all have a societal component and vary from social assistance and support to certain target groups to applying academic skills to solving pressing societal issues.\ These activities are mostly unpaid and carried out on a voluntary basis, as a valuable addition to the student's study programme and a service to society.
