All undergraduate programmes require students to complete the University's General Education courses. These courses are aimed at broadening students' knowledge base by providing a structured exposure to a number of fundamental human concerns and to possible approaches to them. The courses include environmental and sustainability-related elements such as 'Humans' relationship with nature' and 'Nature, Science and Technology'.
