Volunteering

Are you ready to understand what it means to be a part of the Hawkeye family and make the Johnson County community feel like home?

Serving others helps you gain confidence, communication, and teamwork skills, all while giving back to our community.

Service can include various levels of commitment from a one-time event to a semester-long commitment.

There are more immersive opportunities, such as: participating in a service-learning or community-engaged course, alternative break, or volunteer summer internship. You can also join a service-based student organization.

There are many opportunities to fit your schedule and service goals!

To learn more about service opportunities, explore the Leadership and Engagement website. Then, log into MyUI and schedule an appointment with the Volunteer Engagement Manager. Select “Volunteer & Service Opportunities” to see available times to meet.

You can make an appointment with a Career Coach in the Pomerantz Career Center to discuss other service opportunities related to your major and career goals.

Community-Engaged Courses (CECs) are tagged on MyUI. To learn more about CECs and how they can benefit your education and career, visit the Office of Community Engagement’s website, or e-mail the Office of Community Engagement to set up an appointment.
