Service Learning Projects


Support underserved communities through social-impact projects to help those in need.

Overview


Peter Drucker once stated, “It is not enough for business to do well; it must also do good” (Drucker, 1974). While all MBA programs teach you about business practices to ensure the enterprise does well, CIAM also desires its student to learn to do good for others, the community and society as well. One of the ways we fulfilling our vision of "A world where our graduates promote the public good and serve humanity," and our mission of producing “successful, responsible, globally oriented leaders who are rooted in practice” (CIAM, 2020) is through service-learning.


Service-learning, another of CIAM’s established high-impact practices, provides you an experiential learning opportunity to do good and contribute to the community while receiving academic credit. You will be able to engage in activities that address human and community needs together with structured opportunities intentionally designed to promote student learning and development. 


Service-learning intentionally strikes a balance between student learning and community outcomes. It is a co-curricular activity where a student’s passion and interests align with a community partner’s mission. Such collaborations have often proven to be transformative ones, not just impacting students’ careers, but their entire lives and the betterment of the community partner too. 

“CIAM provided me with professional business experience that is absolutely invaluable to me as a working professional now. I was able to complete consulting projects for real world clients and through these immersive experiences I learned how to give professional level presentations, create quality business reports and manage a professional team... I am forever grateful to CIAM for the practical knowledge and skills that I walked away with.”
