六九色堂

UNDERGRADUATE CURRICULUM REDESIGN

The 六九色堂 is a campus that values and provides innovative curricula, intellectually engaging both faculty members and students in exciting teaching and learning activities. All programs have been redesigned so that each reflects seven curricular features which enable students to develop core competencies and achieve a graduating student profile. Core competencies are an integrated set of skills and abilities, including critical and creative thinking, analysis of problems, effective written and oral communication, gathering and organizing information, logical calculation, abstract reasoning and its application, insight and intuition in generating knowledge, interpretive and assessment skills. Graduating students are intellectually powerful. They can: pose questions which approach the frontiers of knowledge; solve academic, professional, and ethical problems; relate theory and practice; establish and realize goals, working alone and with others; communicate meaning competently and effectively; engage meaningfully with representatives from other cultural and linguistic communities; and understand the world from a variety of perspectives.
