Professoriate, students are encouraged to thoughtfully andpurposefully engage with their peers through the course discussions. This is especially true in thelectures covering global perspectives in higher education. Since its inception, the course hasattracted students from a variety of backgrounds around the world. International students in thecourse are invited to present on the educational formats, standards, and requirements of the earlyeducation and higher education systems in their home country. These presentations evoke a richdialogue around differences and commonalities between education systems around the world.Throughout the semester, students are required to keep a weekly journal of their thoughts andexperiences throughout the course, blog

Employers report thatemployees are not well prepared in terms of global knowledge, writing, critical thinking,adaptability, self-knowledge, oral communication, or quantitative reasoning19. However, thequestion remains: how to effectively design the curriculum to ensure that both discipline-specificand cross-disciplinary skills are sufficiently covered? To address this question, we need toexplore the issue from multiple angles: (1) gaps in education perceived by faculty, (2) gaps ineducation perceived

Such profound ignorancereveals a profound social need.
