Volunteering

Volunteer work is another way that students can explore and clarify career interests, apply knowledge, gain skills and at the same time provide service. It is personally rewarding, can be used to enhance your educational experience, and builds your resume. As an OSU student, you can explore volunteer opportunities and manage your volunteer service record through OSU Community Connection- http://communityconnection.osu.edu/.
