As part of the accreditation process through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), a Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) topic is selected to enhance student success.
TAMIU's QEP, LEARN (Learning Experientially: Active Real-world Navigation), will transform undergraduate education by expanding experiential learning (EL) opportunities that foster career readiness through knowledge and skills, as well as application to real-world contexts.
Through reflection, students will critically examine their EL experience and how it connects to their learning and skills.
Experiential learning, which is commonly known as "learning by doing" or "hands-on learning" can empower students with skills, knowledge, and experiences needed to thrive academically and professionally. Three specific curricular EL experiences will be targeted which include:
Internships
Undergraduate Research
Service-Learning
In addition, students will have opportunities to reflect on their co-curricular activities.
LEARN Information Sessions
Join our hands-on activities to LEARN about the QEP!
Currently enrolled students who attend LEARN activities and complete an exit evaluation will be entered into a giveaway. This prize and more will be awarded at the end-of-semester Experiential Learning Loteria! The more activities you attend, the more opportunities to win.
