The value of community engagement in academia

On this episode of VIEW to the U, Andreas Bendlin, a faculty member in the Department of Historical Studies, and UTM’s current Vice-Dean, Academic Experience, touches on his work in Classics & Roman History, with expertise in ancient religion and ancient civilizations, in many areas, but particularly in the Graeco-Roman world.

But he provides insight with regards to the two portfolios that he oversees within the Deans’ Office at UTM: Academic Integrity, which has many interesting challenges arising right now, as well as Experiential Education, an area in which UTM has particularly thrived over the past few years, providing students with many unique opportunities to gain valuable and practical experience outside of the classroom to better prepare them for future career paths.
