The Community-Based Learning Course Guide lists University of Notre Dame courses that address social issues through experiential learning. This guide is designed to help students find courses that address social issues with an experiential learning (EL), community-based learning (CBL), or community-based research (CBR) pedagogy. EL opportunities put you in direct contact with the phenomenon you are studying or with important contexts of that phenomenon. CBL courses involve community service or other ways for you to be involved in and learn from and with the local community.
