Center for Service Learning, Internships, and Civic Engagement (SLICE)

SLICE/CETR supports students, faculty, and staff by offering experiential learning opportunities, community-based participatory research, and engagement initiatives. The Center fosters community partnerships to facilitate internship and volunteer placements. If you are considering starting a service-learning class, call (310) 243-2438, or visit the CETR website.
