Prototypes

We support pilots that have flexible and agile structures, a sustainable cost model, and stronger connections between students and faculty, classroom study, and experiential application and ultimately between individual development and broader social change.

Prototypes

Core Pathways

  • Prototype
  • Pilot

Core Pathways is an interdisciplinary exploration of complex global challenges created to equip Georgetown Undergraduate students with the tools necessary to grapple with the myriad of complex challenges facing the world.

  • Prototype

Bridge Courses are concise, high-impact courses offer graduating seniors a novel educational model. This suite of 1-credit courses covers topics critical to a successful transition from student to alumnus and encourage soon-to-be graduates to reflect on their Georgetown experience and create their own frameworks for living a life of meaning and purpose beyond the Hilltop.

UNXD

  • Prototype

The UNXD designation is used for courses that fall outside traditional course numbers or academic units. It is used for courses that may have multiple course numbers, sit outside of a single academic unit, or are offered by a non-degree granting campus unit, involve experiential opportunities, and/or are offered in non-traditional formats. UNXD courses are administered by Designing the Future(s) staff who work within the Provostu2019s office and are overseen by the Vice Provost for Education.u00a0u00a0

Convergence

  • Prototype

Launching in Spring 2021 Convergence Labs will offer a new place for Georgetown faculty to reframe research, expand partnerships, and develop new pedagogical approaches to their work. The Labs consist of project teams made up of students, faculty, and industry and community partners, all working together for the common good.
