O que nossos estudantes dizem
The Segal Education Award was matched dollar-for-dollar, making this graduate program very affordable. I was given the opportunity to earn a Master’s degree by completing a community service project of your choice, in a community of your choice, while being given the money and tools to do it.
ASHLEY AKERS, Master of Arts in Applied Community Development ‘17Future Generations University incorporates what we like to call in Peace Corps a “I do, we do, you do” approach through community labs. It allows students to be guided by the instructors while applying learned skills to real life issues. The labs are my favorite aspect of the masters program because it’s a unique approach to learning.
