Community Engagement and Education, BS: Community-Based Organizations: Policy and Leadership

The Submajor in Community-Based Organizations in the Community Engagement and Education (CEED) Program is designed for students who already work or plan to work in community-based organizations working on a range of issues. The specific submajor courses will prepare you to work within and provide leadership in these organizations, understand budgeting and fundraising, and a range of other related issues. This CEED submajor is the only BS degree focused on community-based organizations in the State of Wisconsin. Courses focused on community-based organizations are combined with other CEED courses on collective action for social change, community development, and a range of related topics.

Courses in the CEED BS program are offered during the day as well as online, in the evening, and on weekends. We also give academic credit for prior professional experience.

Community-Based Organization submajor graduates work as youth leaders and educators, administrators in community-based organizations, community organizers, and state and local elected officials.
