The College works with organizations across Greater Los Angeles that want to collaborate with our students and faculty. Partners bring real problems and receive professional-quality work; students gain experience that classroom instruction alone cannot provide. This section explains how to begin a partnership, what to expect from a collaboration, and where partners and the College community come together, including CBE Service Day and the annual Community Partner Networking Mixer.
