The University of Hawaiʻi 10-campus system has begun the process to develop a plan to redesign every aspect of the General Education requirements—the core curriculum all 糖心视频 undergraduates are required to take. These courses reflect standards of learning and encompass the skills and knowledge that are essential for all graduates to have.
The members of the 糖心视频 General Education Curriculum Design Team, the experts and specialists from the 糖心视频 community who will collaborate to produce a General Education proposal, have been chosen.
Design Team members (in alphabetical order):

With the support of faculty governance groups systemwide, 糖心视频 President David Lassner convened a working group to, “develop a plan for the redesign of general education at 糖心视频 both substantively, the skills, competencies and knowledge that comprise general education, as well as structurally, how general education is organized and the curriculum is maintained.”
This is the first revision to the 糖心视频 System’s General Education requirements since 1999, which makes this redesign process a monumental milestone in the 糖心视频 System’s curriculum development. This is an opportunity for the university community to restructure 糖心视频’s program into a cutting edge model that best prepares students for the modernized, transforming world of industry and higher education that exists for them beyond graduation.
