Immersive Learning

Support Immersive Learning at Ball State!

Immersive learning projects are high-impact learning experiences that involve collaborative student-driven teams guided by faculty mentors. Students earn credit for working with community partners such as businesses, nonprofits, and government agencies to address community challenges through the creation of a product that has a lasting impact.

When you support Immersive Learning through your One Ball State Day gift, you help to enhance student-centered experiences hosted by Immersive Learning including community-building events, student trainings, project showcases, and more.
