Opening our doors to the
Community

Some of the priorities Brock embraces in order to serve as a resource for the broader community include:

expanding opportunities for community members to be engaged in University programs of all kinds
encouraging student leadership in local, national and international activities through research, development and social advocacy
developing mentorship programs with alumni, and with corporate and community partners
collaborating with others to develop business incubators to help research and innovative projects create employment opportunities in our region and beyond.
