Service & Engagement serves both the University and the Maryville community as the main source for volunteer opportunities, the benefit of academic endeavors, and service goals of community agencies. Volunteer programs at Northwest are beneficial to the development of students and to the improvement of the surrounding communities. We offer a wide range of programs that help students become engaged in the community and provide a valuable experience to apply to post-college careers.
