Goals of General Education at UND
Students are expected to explore a range of content areas and to develop broad learning abilities as they complete their general education requirements at UND. Students’ general education courses should anchor their future university work and provide a model for life-long learning. By the time students complete their general education courses, they should be able to:
- communicate effectively, both orally and in writing;
- think critically and creatively;
- make informed choices;
- understand how conclusions are reached in the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the arts and humanities;
- acquire knowledge over a broad spectrum of subject areas;
- develop some familiarity with cultures other than their own.
In choosing general education courses, students are encouraged to venture into areas that are new to them. By choosing courses that complement each other, students can reinforce and enhance the knowledge and abilities acquired in each course, as well as develop the ability to recognize relationships.
