The University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO) has a long-standing tradition of incorporating community engagement into scholarship. UNO students, faculty and staff have the opportunity to archive their scholarship of engagement through Digital Commons.
What is Engaged Research?
Engaged Research (defined): The New England Resource Center for Higher Education (NERCHE) defines community-engaged research as a type of engagement that “redefines faculty scholarly work from the application of academic expertise to community-engaged scholarship that involves the faculty member in a reciprocal partnership with the community."
