Engaged Scholarship is a distinctive, scholarly approach to university-community partnerships. Engaged scholars understand that the underlying principles of effective engagement with communities include mutual respect, recognition that community knowledge is valuable, and a focus on sustainability as an integral part of the relationship. Join us for a panel discussion with Texas Tech faculty members who have been involved in engaged scholarship and community partnerships for a substantial amount of time. The panelists will share their experiences in engaging with diverse sets of external communities for the mutual benefit of both the community and scholarship. They will discuss strategies for identifying the right partners, building trust, setting expectations, dealing with challenges, and achieving successful outcomes for all involved.
