Collaborative learning across disciplines
It’s a hallmark of CGU. Faculty teach and conduct research across disciplines to look at problems in new ways. You gain insight by taking courses outside your field and even pursue advanced degrees by blending programs. With a purposefully-small median class size of 9, we are able to collaborate, to innovate, to stay current.
