Universities have long provided hands-on learning as part of the curriculum to give students a glimpse of life beyond the classroom. For NSU’s class of 2021 and all future undergradu- ate students, experiential education and learning is a gradua- tion requirement that will enrich learning and personal growth in profound ways. NSU’s Experiential Education and Learning (ExEL) initiative embeds these opportunities into every undergraduate’s experience.
