Innovative, High-Quality Undergraduate and Graduate Student Experience & Success
Overview
U of T Scarborough faculty are widely recognized for their innovation in teaching practices. They have helped to make the campus a leader in experiential, work-integrated learning for over 50 years, and have launched dynamic academic programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels that highlight a progressive, entrepreneurial approach to learning.
We will build on these successes by helping to advance the University-wide priority of re-imagining undergraduate education and by strengthening graduate education and enriching the graduate student experience.
Priority 1 - Student Experience & Success
Strategic Direction 1.1
Provide all students with transformative, experiential and holistic curricular, co-curricular and extra-curricular learning opportunities.
Objective: Foster global leadership, promote well-being, nurture resilience, and sustain community
Strategic Direction 1.2
Undertake comprehensive curriculum renewal that builds upon our top-tier teaching, prepare students for the world of work and the disruptions of the future, and supports innovations in inclusive teaching and learning.
Objective: Ensure that graduating students have intellectual and intercultural competencies to be responsible, adaptable global citizens and leaders, equipped with tools and transferrable skills that enable them to thrive and to influence the world.
"Success is an inch outside your comfort zone and an inch inside your effort zone. Everyone is not born a genius but discipline will help you strive for your goal when motivation is scarce. Be true to your work and it shall always be rewarded."
