Grand Challenges

STRATEGIC RECOMMENDATION

Engage students in grand societal challenges via an interdisciplinary approach.

  • Engage students in interdisciplinary, team-based, educational experiences that focus on societal grand challenges such as sustainability, privacy, providing access to clean water or mapping the human brain - in stage-appropriate ways.
  • Create a learning commons from which students can create their own educational experiences and responses to these challenges.
