Public Service Center

Cornell University - NY, New York

Cornell’s Public Service Center was founded in 1991 to support public service initiatives that connect academic study with real world experiences. The Center engages students and faculty in service and social action, using service learning theory as the basis. Academic instruction is combined with community-based experiences to help students develop the ability to understand and solve problems in a more complex way.
