Global Perspectives Graduation Requirement
Living in an interconnected, global society requires an appreciation of the complexity and interdependency of world events and issues. Undergraduate education at TWU aims to broaden students’ perspectives, expand the boundaries of their conversations, and provide them opportunities to recognize and understand other worldviews. To meet this goal, all undergraduates who enroll at TWU must complete three (3) semester credit hours of approved global perspectives coursework.
Incoming transfer students may contact an academic advisor or a transfer navigator to make the request that an incoming transfer course be reviewed, evaluated, and determine whether the course can be used as a global perspectives course.
