The Community Engaged Scholarship Forum annually celebrates the diversity of community-engaged work across the University of Pittsburgh. It is where faculty, students, staff, and community members come to present their community-engaged work, discover new avenues of partnership, network with those who do similar work and celebrate Pitt's commitment to community engagement. The 2020 Community Engaged Scholarship Forum was held on March 3rd.
In recognition of our commitment to service, the Carnegie Foundation has awarded the University of Pittsburgh the Carnegie Community Engagement Classification.
