IDS* 201: Explore [Theme]

3 Credits
What is the purpose of liberal education in my life and in society? Why do I have to take general education courses unrelated to my major or program to graduate? How can I integrate the knowledge and skills developed from all of my courses to enrich my understanding of the theme of this course and prepare me for the challenges and opportunities I will face after graduation? In the beginning of this interactive class, students will explore answers to these questions. Throughout the semester students will develop the essential intellectual skills needed to succeed in the 21st century: integrative learning, interdisciplinary inquiry, creative and critical thinking, and collaborative problem solving. Students will learn how to apply these skills through learning projects that will broaden and deepen their understanding of the theme of this course and hone their ability to effectively communicate their ideas. 
Prerequisites: ENG* 101 with a grade of “C” or better, plus at least 9 additional college credits with a grade of “C” or better
Offered: Fall, Spring
