Apply Your Learning
Make the most out of your university career by taking advantage of all that Laurier has to offer you. Volunteer work, campus clubs, leadership programs, studying abroad, work experience – there are so many ways you can extend your classroom experience into the real world.
Here are just a few examples of the experiences you’ll get in the Youth and Children’s Studies program:
- Take courses with a Community Service-Learning component to build your experience working with children and youth in the real world.
- Build your academic resume by submitting your work to Bridges: An Undergraduate Journal for Contemporary Connections for a chance to be published.
- Participate in research, knowledge sharing and community outreach projects with opportunities within the Child and Adolescent Research and Education (CARE) lab.
- Apply for the Research Apprenticeship Program and work closely with a faculty member on a topic that interests you
