One of Monmouth University's programs of distinction is the Experiential Education component of our curriculum. Monmouth University is proud to be among the few institutions of higher education in the United States to have experiential education as a requirement.
Experiential Education, also known as ExEd, is a unique program that helps students to link classroom academics with real world experiences.
Important things to know about Experiential Education include:
All undergraduate students must complete the Experiential Education requirement before graduating.
The Experiential Education requirement may be completed in many ways, including through a cooperative learning placement, an internship, a service learning project, an experiential education course, or study abroad for a semester.
Each academic department on campus has a faculty member known as a Career Advisor and Planner (CAP) to help students with their Experiential Education requirement.
Other offices that can assist students include Cooperative Education, Service Learning and Community Programs (both in the Center for Student Success), and Study Abroad.
