Your Pathway to Transformational Experiences
Weve built a home for St. Kates engaged learning programs within the Office of Scholarly Engagement (OSE). These programs are proven to have powerful educational benefits and provide opportunities for meaningful student-faculty interactions and mentorship. Students can leverage OSEs local and global programs to complement their studies, realize their agency as changemakers, and build connections across and beyond the University.
Women around me consistently pushed me to try new things, so I did. When I was a first-year student, I talked with other students about what experiences they were participating in. I learned from them and the paths they took. Addison Cross '20
Through OSE programs, I was able to secure an educational job where I earned pay while I helped my community and focused on social justice issues that connected with me as a Black woman. Anastasia Rousseau '22
OSE programs allow you to connect what youre learning and enhance the experience you have in your four years. Everything I learned in the classroom and my extracurriculars was applicable in real life." Pragya Karmacharya '21
Office of Scholarly Engagement Programs
Antonian Honors Program
This cohort-based academic experience is built around a strong community and culminates in the creation and completion of a rigorous independent thesis. Since the program began in 1986, it has graduated nearly 500 Antonian Scholars.
Competitive Fellowships
Faculty and staff provide intensive, one-on-one mentoring to student candidates. The application and interview process itself cultivates intellectual growth and awareness of career trajectories, propelling students toward greater post-graduate success.
Community Work and Learning
Facilitating meaningful community engagement through course-based work, scholarship, and student employment, students have opportunities to practice critical and creative thinking while gaining real-world experience.
Global Studies
Advancing the Universitys mission and vision through engagement with global cultures, communities, and environments, these experiential programs provide both liberal arts and professional experience with an emphasis on accessibility, inclusion, and cultural sensitivity.
Undergraduate Research and Creative Inquiry
Students from a wide range of disciplines currently collaborate with faculty, engaging in deep learning and developing as scholars. Since 2010, over 300 students have participated in the Summer Scholars student research program, with most presenting at national conferences.
