Sustainability-supportive
A list of the institution level sustainability learning outcomes:
Global Understanding
Global Understanding ∙ Sense of Historical Development ∙ Civic Knowledge and Engagement ∙ Intercultural Competence
Global understanding encompasses the knowledge of cultural similarities and differences, the context (historical, geographical, political and environmental) from which these arise, and how they are manifest in modern society. Global understanding is exercised as civic engagement, intercultural competence and the ability to understand an academic discipline outside of the domestic context.
This Senate-approved learning outcomes applies to all students, both undergraduate and graduate. The learning outcome serve as the basis from which to guide the development of degree programs, specializations and courses; as a framework to ensure outcomes are clear to students and to support their achievement; and to inform the process of assessment of outcomes through institutional quality reviews of programs and departments.
