Student Learning Outcomes

The program to assess student learning is an integral part of the university’s commitment to excellent teaching and effective learning. Information is systematically collected and examined both to document and improve student learning in our undergraduate core curriculum and undergraduate and graduate academic programs.

The assessment program itself is routinely updated,  and the information gained from the assessment process becomes part of on-going curricular and co-curricular development.

The faculty of the University of St. Thomas has created an expansive Core Curriculum and an extensive set of majors and minors to provide students with an excellent undergraduate education rooted in the liberal arts and the Catholic intellectual tradition and prepare them to address the challenges of the 21st century.
