Program-Level Goals


The program-level student learner outcomes are within the program goals by providing students the ability to explore, engage, connect, create, and empathize in academic and/or real-world settings.

  • Explore

    You will explore a breadth of knowledge, methods of inquiry and reasoning, and fundamental questions. That process will cultivate curiosity, facilitate an understanding of diverse perspectives, empower personal growth and development, and build a foundation for lifelong learning.

  • Engage

    As you engage with new knowledge, people, and perspectives, you will assume responsibility for your learning. In the process, you will develop enhanced communication—written and spoken—and critical thinking skills grounded in logic, reason, analysis, and synthesis. These skills will allow you to employ multiple approaches to complex and real-world problems. As an engaged citizen, you will bring intellectual creativity and curiosity to your personal, civic, and professional life.

  • Connect

    You will discover how disciplines, societal challenges, and cultures are interconnected. This process links coursework and community, local and global issues, past and present. Your ability to integrate learning will lead to new ways of thinking, analyzing, and interacting with our dynamic and diverse world.

  • Create

    Your knowledge and skills will empower you to ask innovative questions and envision unique projects. This process of creative engagement will enable inquisitiveness and original thinking. It will provide you with the agility for success in your career and life.

  • Empathize

    Your General Education will facilitate open-mindedness and enable you to better understand and imagine others’ experiences. As you become more knowledgeable and curious about the world, you will develop respect for diverse points of view, engage in ethical decision-making, and demand and demonstrate compassionate leadership.
