What is the Northwestern University Community Engagement Council (NUCEC) and what are the benefits of being a member? Northwestern University Community Engagement Council (NUCEC) is an advisory committee that provides ongoing support and guidance for the Community-Engaged Research Center. It provides a forum for individuals in the NU community and its affiliated institutions to come together to share information, network and receive feedback and ideas around their work with community organizations. This level of communication between colleagues helps in the establishment of community-academic relationships, fosters opportunities for collaboration, and the ability to coordinate research and intervention projects with community partners. How many members does NUCEC currently have and when does it meet? There are currently 55 members of NUCEC and the list continues to grow - we invite all interested faculty, staff and students working with the community to join NUCEC. NUCEC members are invited to participate in community oriented events sponsored by the Community Engaged Research Center, including networking events with community organizations. NUCEC meets quarterly, starting in September of each year.
