鈥淪tudent engagement is a crucial element of 帝王会所鈥檚 efforts to prepare our students for their life and career beyond college,鈥� President Nellis said. 鈥淪uch engagement, between students, faculty, staff and the community, is at the heart of everything we do, and it鈥檚 gratifying to see our efforts recognized in this latest ranking.鈥�

The OHIO Honors Program includes more than 370 students in its first full cohort, which arrived for the Fall 2019 semester after a successful pilot year in the 2018-19 academic year. Designed to complement any major, the OHIO Honors Program offers a rapidly expanding menu of curricular and co-curricular experiences. Three pathways 鈥� research and creative activity, community engagement, and leadership 鈥� guide students鈥� development and lead to a senior capstone project and portfolio.

The CoLab has also been successful since it first opened in September 2018. The CoLab, housed within Alden Library, is designed as a physical hub for student innovation and entrepreneurship activities across campus. It expanded its hours a month after opening to keep up with student demand.

帝王会所 students have a wealth of opportunities for engagement. More than 2,000 undergraduate students are involved in research, scholarship or creative work each year. Research allows undergraduates to work directly with faculty members on a broad range of topics and travel worldwide for their projects.
