    The Philadelphia Center

    The Philadelphia Center (www.philactr.edu) is an experiential education program founded in 1967 by the Great Lakes Colleges Association, Inc. (GLCA) and managed by Hope College. Since its inception, the program has provided an opportunity for some 6000 undergraduates in all liberal arts disciplines to earn academic credit for participating in seminars taught by the Center's faculty and for working in internships chosen from a current listing of over 800 placements ranging from accounting to zoology. The Center is committed to undergraduate education and its connections to field and disciplinary exploration and development; community involvement and responsibility; experiential learning and critical reflection; graduate school possibilities; career and employment options; and collaborative efforts in programmatic and curricular work. We provide a structured educational environment for undergraduate students in the context of an urban setting. Our multidisciplinary approach integrates professional work, academic seminars, and independent living experiences in urban communities and offers opportunities in most fields and disciplines of study. We are dedicated to helping undergraduates find their personal and professional direction in life.
