About
ACES courses represent corners of campus that highlights the intent of the AC requirement, while also deepening the meaning of that intent through a combination of multi-disciplinary research and praxis, the development of students and community partners as co-educators, mentoring opportunities, and increased and sustained accessibility of information.
To learn about projects developed with ACES community partners, please visit the ACES Student Community Projects.
The ACES Program provides support for faculty to incorporate community-based learning into new or revised AC courses. If you are a faculty member interested in developing or continuing an ACES course, please visit our Grants page.
ACES Chancellor's Public Fellows
Faculty members who teach an ACES course may apply for funding to appoint a graduate student or senior undergraduate student as an ACES Chancellor’s Public Fellows. Fellows play a critical role in developing a course’s community-engagement component, collaborating closely with faculty members to foster meaningful undergraduate learning experiences. They ensure that community partnerships are mutually beneficial and contribute to long-term community impact. \ \ A Fellow’s role will vary depending on the needs of the course and generally include serving as a liaison between faculty, community partners, and students. Fellows may also facilitate structured reflections with students, assist with syllabus development, and cultivate community partnerships.
