University of Denver

Job Info

---

Department Summary

DU's Living and Learning Communities (LLCs) are among the most distinctive programs of their kind in the country.

Academics -- Each LLC is based on a theme. Every quarter, our students take seminar classes that relate to that theme. These classes are taught by DU professors and credits from these courses can be applied to relevant minors.

Residential -- Students live on the same floor of the residence hall that hosts their LLC and take part in programs that enhance their coursework. Special dinners, speakers, cultural activities, retreats or field trips into Colorado's great outdoors are just a few of the things our students do.

Community Engagement -- What makes the LLCs unique is how our students, faculty and professional staff explore and apply course concepts in real-world community settings. Students deepen their understanding of the world and work to create healthy communities.
