EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING PROGRAM It's a simple concept - when you learn by doing, you learn differently. You learn more. You learn beyond subject matter - you also learn about yourself. Therefore, all undergraduate students at UGA engage in experiential learning before they graduate. There are a wealth of opportunities on and beyond campus: explore the full range of activities on the UGA Experiential Learning website. Students in the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences can choose between a number of options for their experiential learning: Global: Participate in any UGA-approved study abroad or field study program. Research: Complete an undergraduate research course denoted with an R-suffix (such as RELI 4960R), or participate in a CURO Research Assistantship, or CURO Summer Fellowship. Service: Sign up for a service learning course approved by the Office of Service-Learning. Courses: Sign up for any UGA course approved for Experiential Learning. Non-Credit Activities: Participate in any non-course activity that has been approved for Experiential Learning. Franklin Performance Activities: Selected non-credit experiences; for example, participate in University Theatre Season productions or music ensembles. Students must seek approval from the Experiential Learning Certification Officer.
