CE101 Cultural Engagement Requirement #1


The Cultural Engagement Experiences, as required elements in the Integrated General Education Program (IGEP), encourage students to integrate into their educational program, either through coursework or through experiential learning, an awareness of how culture shapes worldview and acts to develop and test shared meanings among members of social groups. Through exposure to and interaction with a culture they can identify as different from their own, and by reflecting on that experience and articulating what they learn from it, students build these experiences into their growth in the areas of Identity Development  and Community Engagement. All students must complete either CE101 and CE102, or CE103. Each of these involves registering for and completing the experience (timelines vary; please consult your adviser and the appropriate office or academic department at the College) and submitting a reflection based on the prompt posted to the corresponding Blackboard course. These reflections will be incorporated into the IGEP Portfolio during the Capstone course.

The following qualify as CE experiences for 2019-2020:

  • Any semester-length study abroad program operated by SMUMN or affiliated with and approved by the Study Abroad Office at the College (CE103)
  • Any short-term study abroad programs offered through the College or through a partnership or affiliation approved by the Study Abroad Office at the College (CE101 or CE102)
