General Education Requirements

The purpose of the general education program is to initiate, develop, demonstrate, and integrate Lindenwood’s Institutional Learning Outcomes (ILOs), with emphasis on ILOs 1, 2, and 3. (Emphasis on ILO 4 occurs primarily within the major and minor programs.) The Lindenwood ILOs are fully aligned with leading frameworks of essential 21st-century qualifications and serve to prepare the graduate, regardless of major, for personal success in a world of increasing complexity, innovation, and change.

Institutional Learning Objectives (ILOs): The knowledge, skills, abilities, and attitudes that students are expected to develop as a result of their overall experiences with any aspect of the college, including courses, programs, and student services. See link for a complete list of ILOs. Institutional Learning Outcomes
