OERD Departments and Programs

The Division of Outreach, Engagement and Regional Development’s programs reflect our vision and mission and values and our commitment to fostering engagement within the university, in the community and across the region. Some of our programs even support nationwide and global initiatives. Our staff provides leadership, partnership and support to help foster and grow reciprocal engagement between NIU and the community where each partner has a voice and each partner benefits from the work being done together.

The work we do falls broadly into these four categories, but we are always open to new ideas and ways to collaborate.
