Schwartz School of Business
The St. FX Schwartz School of Business is once again offering the opportunity for organizations to take advantage of the Majors Consulting Project course. Doing so provides an excellent and cost effective way for an organization to examine and address an important business issue. See details

St. FX Student Service Learning
Service learning is a collaborative model that is based on partnership between the community organization and the university. The community provides valuable opportunities for students to learn and students provide the community with a valuable service. It is truly a win-win situation.  Most service learning experiences take place within a not-for-profit community organization.  Chamber members are often involved with not-for-profit organizations.

For more information see details and for more information on service learning at StFX or to request students, please contact Marla Gaudet at 867-2563 or mgaudet@stfx.ca.
