Millikin Program of Student Learning

Designed to help prepare students for responsible and rewarding lives in the twenty-first century, the Millikin Program of Student Learning revolves around the following core values: synthesis of theory and practice, critical thinking, ethics and values, and intercultural studies. Three components form the basis for the program: the major, the co-curriculum, and University Studies courses. By requiring courses in each of a student's years at Millikin, the University Studies component ensures that students have courses beyond the major that include students from across the university.

Project Kaleidoscope

Project Kaleidoscope (PKAL) is an informal national alliance of individuals, institutions, and organizations committed to strengthening undergraduate science, mathematics, engineering, and technology education.

Comparative History of Ideas Program, University of Washington

The Comparative History of Ideas Program (CHID) at the University of Washington is an interdisciplinary undergraduate degree-granting program. It provides for the interdisciplinary study of intellectual history by bringing together thematically related courses from such fields as literature, history, anthropology, philosophy, the arts, and religious studies. By introducing students to the interrelation of ideas and society, the program demonstrates the need to consider intellectual problems from many perspectives. The goal is to provide each student with the tools of critical and parallel thinking.
