Community Means Everyone

From one of the largest Campus Ministry programs in the country, which serves students from all religious backgrounds, to our Multi-Ethnic Education and Engagement Center (MEC), you can find support to learn and grow through leadership and service, faith and justice in our intentionally inclusive community. We’re committed to becoming an anti-racist university, and through our interdisciplinary Race and Ethnic Studies Program, you can develop intercultural competencies, take part in our annual “Native Peoples of the Americas” colloquium and earn a minor in Africana Studies, Latinx and Latin American Studies or Race and Social Justice.

Experiential
Learning

At UD, learning extends far beyond the classroom. Make a difference with our Neighborhood School Centers through the Fitz Center for Leadership in Community. Actively participate in a yearlong field practicum to learn the very best practices in early childhood education through our Bombeck Family Learning Center. Gain specialized training and be paired with a successful mentor teacher through the Urban Teacher Academy. Develop professionally as an intervention specialist by joining the Council for Exceptional Children organization. Our commitment to experiential learning is one of the reasons The Princeton Review recognizes UD as one of 50 “Colleges that Create Futures” in the nation.
