In recent years, there has been an increase in collaborations between universities and local community agencies. During the 2005-2006 academic year, the Department of Behavioral and Community Health Sciences at the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health began a community-university partnership with Hosanna House Inc., a local community service center. The initial phase of this partnership included holding a departmental community development course at the community service center. Information from student journals, course evaluations, and key informant interviews were used to describe the attitudes and perspectives of the students, course instructor, and key informants toward this experience. Overall, this experience positively affected the personal and professional development of the students and was well received by faculty and staff within the academic department and community service center. The authors anticipate that this information will promote and serve as a reference for similar community-university partnerships at other schools of public health.
近年来，大学与当地社区机构之间的合作有所增加。在2005 - 2006学年，匹兹堡大学公共卫生研究生院行为与社区健康科学系与当地社区服务中心霍桑纳之家公司建立了社区 - 大学合作伙伴关系。该伙伴关系的初始阶段包括在社区服务中心开设一门部门社区发展课程。来自学生日志、课程评估和关键信息提供者访谈的信息被用于描述学生、课程教师和关键信息提供者对这一经历的态度和观点。总体而言，这一经历对学生的个人和职业发展产生了积极影响，并受到了学术部门和社区服务中心的教职员工的好评。作者预计这些信息将促进其他公共卫生学院类似的社区 - 大学合作伙伴关系，并为其提供参考。
