“We’re seeing the emergence of a new model of education that blends liberal and applied learning.”
That is the view of Debra Humphreys of the American Association of Colleges and Universities, speaking to The Wall Street Journal. Many universities, including Wake Forest University, are taking that approach according to the Journal, with the popular minor being Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship, the basics of starting and operating a business. This is being done to ensure career readiness.
Is this the same at your university? Do you think you feel ready to enter the workforce as you complete your studies at your university?
