Curriculum For Life

What if every student at the University of Glasgow had the opportunity to engage in a curriculum that contains opportunity for work-related and experiential learning, that explores and addresses societal challenges such as climate action, sustainability and social justice?

The Curriculum Transformation workstream propose an embedded opportunity that is predicated upon learning beyond the core discipline and enables students to develop and demonstrate skills for the future workplace through an inclusive, accessible Curriculum for Life (C4L).

Curriculum For Life

  • Suite of challenge-based course
  • Interdisciplinary learning opportunities
  • Design & development funding

Ambition

By AY2029/30, 50-100 Curriculum For Life courses will be developed and approved. This will provide 12,000 opportunities for Y1/2 pre-honors students.

Finding Space

Central to curriculum transformation is finding space in the curriculum.

Guiding Principle 

This will be a value-add, not an add-on.
