MACS TEACHING AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

We in the MACS program believe that true education is an exchange of ideas married with shared experiences. The MACS classroom seeks to create a learning community in which all participants are treated with equity and respect.

We want our graduates to have A-EAS. They should be able to

  • Analyse data (information) to create knowledge
  • Evaluate knowledge to generate wisdom
  • Apply wisdom to foster understanding
  • Synthesize possible remedies based on that understanding
  • At the end of the program, our graduates will be competent cultural critics and analysts ready to influence the development of the Orange economy while maintaining our cultural richness.
