Communities around the world continue to become increasingly interconnected around issues of human rights, the distribution of wealth, climate change, and ethical leadership.

Students in the program develop and carry out an individualized plan of study built around their chosen area of focus and an in-depth topic of inquiry. Students work in close partnership with their faculty advisor to design the work of the semester. This approach to student-centered study assures that each student's academic work is deeply engaging and meaningful to their lives and learning objectives. View more details on Goddard College .
