About Us
The Office of Engagement (OE) develops, supports, and facilitates community engaged teaching, research, and service experiences that occur in and outside of the classroom. We serve as a connector and co-creator with community and UNO to support our metropolitan university priorities to improve life locally, nationally, and globally through community engagement.
