What skills will students need to be leaders in the Fourth Industrial Revolution? How can we prepare a forward-thinking curriculum to prepare our students for careers that don’t exist today? How can we further align our undergraduate curriculum with business workforce needs, thus enhancing career opportunities, expanding choices, for our students? These are the questions that are guiding the development of the Tech Forward Initiative - Essential Education. In this session you will learn about each element of Essential Education including:
Why Michigan Tech Essential Education?
