A two-year project to design five master classes

The project is based on the development of five (5) competencies in students in order to prepare them for the 21st century professional world with a solid humanistic base that goes beyond the training of a discipline of study. The competencies are developed through the 21st century skills academic component which comprises 13 general education requisite courses. The proposed Spotlight project will comprise five (5) masterclasses throughout a 2-year timeframe in Communication, Critical Questioning, Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Research & Exploration, and Ethical Sense & Social Justice.
