INTERNATIONAL LEADERSHIP EXCHANGE
The International Leadership Exchange (ILE) is a community engaged learning initiative that prepares undergraduates to be leaders of nonprofit and public organizations. Through the integration of course readings, classroom discussions, lectures and community engaged learning projects, this dynamic field-study challenges participants to broaden their theoretical and practical understanding of community, nonprofit and public organizations committed to sustainable living, education, public health and community wellness.

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: INDIA & NEPAL INTERNSHIP SUMMER 2024
In August, students from Rutgers Newark traveled to India and Nepal, where they gained invaluable hands-on experience collaborating with local NGOs. During their trip, they engaged in meaningful projects that addressed community needs while also conducting research to better understand the social and cultural dynamics of the region. This immersive experience not only allowed them to apply their academic knowledge in real-world settings but also fostered a deeper appreciation for the challenges faced by these communities.
CULTURES OF THE NORTH: A WINTER WILDERNESS IMMERSION
Rutgers Newark students traveled to Kroka Campus in January where they got to learn how live sustainably by working together to live in the outskirts of Maine/New Hampshire, immerse themselves in the winter ecology, and learn how to basket weave & make pizza.
