General Education

 

General education at Augsburg is a broad-based education designed to empower students for futures of leadership and service in our complex and ever-changing world. Built on the foundation of the liberal arts, our signature general education curriculum prepares students with the knowledge, skills, and values to be lifelong critical thinkers, informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, and responsible leaders, an intentional nod to the university’s mission.
