How will the new GE 400-level Seminar work?
The GEC will create a new 400-level course, each with a GE prefix, for each Global Issues category. Faculty can then propose specific sections of the course that will in some way address the Global Issue. In the Sustainability category, for example, a faculty member might propose a course focusing on water. The course will then be similar to a government commission convened to address a specific problem. Students from multiple disciplines will come together to analyze a problem and propose a solution that integrates ideas from several disciplines into a solution.
