Associates

These NIU faculty and staff contribute to the interdisciplinary nature of the Center for Nonprofit and NGO Studies' mission through their work on committees, by partnering on events and contributing to the Center's growth. Many associates also teach interdisciplinary courses that go toward completion of the Nonprofit and NGO Studies major, minor, certificate of undergraduate study in Nonprofit and NGO Studies and the undergraduate Grant Writing certificate.

If you are a faculty or staff member at NIU interested in becoming an associate of the center, please reach out to Mark Schuller, the acting director, at mschuller@niu.edu.
