The Master's Degree in Lifelong Learning is born from this analysis of the human being and the world around us.
Our students learn how to make better decisions, something they will need to do throughout their careers.
They also acquire the ability to tell others what they have decided and why.
This is the great opportunity our young people are looking for to become the workers of the future.
