General Education Mission Statement General Education at Franklin University contributes to the development of foundational skills and the acquisition of general knowledge. This experience is fundamental to a career- focused education and serves to promote lifelong learning.
Foundational skills are learned capacities that students can transfer from higher education contexts to work, home, and community. General knowledge is the intellectual basis of the academic disciplines appropriate for a baccalaureate degree.
General Education Outcomes Graduates will be able to:
1. Communicate effectively 2. Apply logical thinking and critical analysis 3. Articulate ethical considerations 4. Apply theories and methods of science 5. Use mathematical information and processes 6. Investigate global issues and diverse cultures
7. Demonstrate an appreciation for creativity, aesthetics, the human experience, and the impact of technology on culture
8. Apply strategies for self-management and social interaction
These outcomes are emphasized in the General Education courses. Through the Franklin University course design model, these foundational outcomes are also integrated throughout the curriculum.
General Education Requirements Fifty hours of General Education coursework must be included in each program of study. Exceptions are granted only with the agreement of the Academic Advisor and Program Chair and based on demonstrated proficiency. General Education electives may be selected from the college level humanities, social sciences, economics, mathematics, science, communication and professional foundations offerings.
The General Education curriculum supports the Transfer Module adopted by the Ohio Board of Regents (OBR) for the state’s public universities and community colleges and adheres to OBR’s General Education guidelines for Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science degrees.
