Methodology for data collection:
Data from Canadian Universities Survey Consortium was used to derive the numbers for this credit. The data covers only second and third year undergraduate students, and is used as a proxy for all other students. 2013/2014 and 2012/2013 academic sessions were used as the time frame.
Further, an innovative program developed by Dalhousie to enable students build stronger connections with the community is DalConnect Certificate Program.
