UW Bothell honored for outstanding community engagement

The annual hackathon sponsored by Avanade is only one of the ways the global internet technology company partners with UW Bothell. Last spring’s event was an opportunity for students from every academic discipline to connect with fellow enthusiasts, learn new skills and combine forces to build something together to “Save the World,” the theme for 2025.

UW Bothell has again received national recognition from the American Council on Education and the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching for its sustained, institution-wide commitment to community engagement. The Carnegie Community Engagement reclassification recognizes UW Bothell’s exemplary practices and long-standing partnerships that are designed to be meaningful and mutually beneficial. The achievement reflects the collective work of faculty and staff across campus, as well as the university’s strong collaboration with community partners.

UW Bothell recognized for community engagement

Beyond UW Bothell, the University of Washington as a whole continues to be recognized for the impact of its community connections. All three UW campuses earned the Carnegie Foundation Community Engagement reclassification, placing the university among 277 institutions nationwide recognized for the depth and importance of their engagement with local, regional, and global communities.
