The Office of the Provost is initiating a significant revision of the general education curriculum aimed at enhancing the educational experience for undergraduate students. This ambitious project seeks to better align the curriculum with the evolving needs of students and the demands of the modern workforce.
To facilitate this transformation, the office is actively recruiting up to four faculty members to take on leadership roles throughout this multi-year initiative. These faculty leaders will be instrumental in guiding the revision process, fostering collaboration among various departments and stakeholders within the institution. Their expertise and insights will be crucial in ensuring that the new curriculum not only meets academic standards but also resonates with the diverse student body.
The selected faculty members will work closely with the Office of the Provost to develop innovative strategies and frameworks that will shape the future of general education at the University. This collaborative effort underscores the commitment to providing a robust and relevant educational foundation for all undergraduate students.
