The primary aim of this flexible and broad-based degree curriculum is to enhance the employability of our students and prepare them for the future workplace. In addition, it enables students to co-design their degree (hence, their modules) based on interests and aspirations of students.
The flexible curriculum structure provides students with many learning options and gives students exposure to broad discipline areas through free electives. A combination of majors and minors are made available to students. It emphasises on independent self-directed learning which is a key skill for graduates in the future. The students have a range of international experiential learning opportunities via short- term mobility, semester exchange programmes, study/field trips abroad, and international internships.
In addition, students will take a series of structured life skills modules for self discovery.
Taylor’s University students have the opportunity to study, travel and make lifelong friends around the world. Students will learn more about themselves, become more independent and give their Taylor’s degree an international edge.
Essentially, the international exposure will allow students to gain new knowledge and skills in an area that is of interest to them thus benefiting from the multi-disciplinary learning environment.
