Mission Statement

The General Education Program is at the core of Middle Tennessee State University's educational mission. It provides students with a broad knowledge and appreciation of the arts and sciences as well as the intellectual skills that provide a basis for effective communication, problem solving, and evaluation. The General Education experience gives students the opportunity to use various technologies to access and analyze information and to debate competing claims of evidence and systems of thought.

The Program assists students in developing an objective view and understanding of the world, its institutions, and themselves by linking the cultural legacy of the past with the technological demands and global concerns of the contemporary world. Finally, it creates in students an awareness of the diverse nature of the world while encouraging them to become active lifelong learners and participants in society.
