Outreach
As Ohio State's flagship university, we connect our teaching, research, and service to issues that concern the state and the world. This page is a gateway to the programs, resources and partnerships through which Ohio State engages with communities across the street and around the globe.
Across the State
The Ohio State University isn't just a campus in Columbus. As a land-grant university, Ohio State has a physical presence throughout the state, with campus research centers throughout the state and extension offices in each of Ohio's 88 counties.
In 2007, students engaged in 153,158 hours of community service (a conservative estimate). More about Outreach at Ohio State…
