The Distinction in Engagement program is designed to engage students in the goals and selected aims of Minnesota State University Moorhead’s Mission Statement in meaningful ways beyond the requirements of major programs of study and the Dragon Core general education program.
To graduate with Distinction in Engagement, students must document significant engagement in each of the program’s six categories, as well as write a self-reflective paper on the overall experience, and prepare and present a professional resume that includes a section on Distinction in Engagement program activities. The six activity categories are:
Engagement in learning within the major.
Engagement in learning beyond the major.
Engagement in service within the University.
Engagement in service beyond the University.
Engagement in citizenship within the region.
Engagement in citizenship beyond the region.
