General Education Program
Through the General Education program, students hone the skills employers want and informed citizens need.
The General Education program at the University of Michigan-Flint fulfills an important academic role in the student’s total educational experience.
The program is designed to provide training in reasoning and critical thinking and to introduce the fundamental disciplines through which people seek to understand themselves, their surroundings, and cultures different from their own.
In accordance with the university’s mission, the program aims to educate all students in an environment that emphasizes literacy, critical thinking, and humanistic and scientific inquiry.
The General Education program reports to the Office of the Vice Provost for Engaged Learning and Teaching Innovation.
