Blog Arts and minds, por Gage Averill, Dean of the Faculty of Arts, UBC
An Arts degree is the degree for the 21st century. What an undergraduate education is good for: It ought to produce critical thinkers, scientifically and culturally literate people who can assess evidence, connect the dots and communicate with clarity – the key skills that, in a fast-changing economy, prepare people for the jobs that haven’t been invented yet.”
Mario Vargas Llosa
