全球人文中心 Seminar Series

The CGH Seminar Series course introduces students to some of the greatest challenges facing humanity today.

成为世界公民

The 全球人文中心 Seminar Series (GLS 490) enables you to deepen your understanding of past and present world issues, 磨练你的文化分析能力, and encourages you to apply your developing global perspective to your chosen discipline. 通过课程, you interact directly with thought leaders who visit campus to share their scholarship.

The class meets weekly on the Biddeford Campus and travels monthly to the Portland Campus for the Health Sciences for public lectures. 每次讲座之前, 阅读并讨论一篇相关文章, while conducting further research into the speaker’s topic. In the hour preceding each lecture, you get to chat informally with the speaker. And following each lecture, you participate in the public Q&和我们的客人见面.

You may take the CGH course for one semester, or may enroll for a second semester and be designated a CGH Scholar.

Before this course I had never had the privilege of having personal conversations with the authors I had studied. The questions you are left with after reading a text can be answered face-to-face, 还有作家自己. This is a learning experience entirely unique to this course.”

你会学到什么??

In the CGH Global Humanities Seminar Series course students learn to:

  • Apply a range of relevant theoretical and/or explanatory perspectives using appropriate investigative and analytical methods to interpret and critically analyze source material.
  • 识别, 描述, and interpret diverse forms of human 文化 production and assess how they shape and are shaped by global, 文化, 以及历史背景. 
  • Read and interpret scholarly works representing a range of disciplines outside their primary area(s) of study.
  • Express the relevance of course texts to their lives, 他们所属的社区, 以及未来的职业规划.
  • Demonstrate the intellectual curiosity and openness to new ideas and cultures necessary to be a responsible global citizen.
  • Develop the intellectual confidence and maturity to discuss their ideas with classmates, 访问学者, 以及普通大众.

致力于广阔的视野

一年两次, the center honors students who have completed two (or more) semesters of the course, 因此获得了CGH学者称号.

Awardees are called to the front of the lecture hall at the start of our final public events in December and April and commended for dedicating themselves to becoming informed global citizens through their engagement with the course. They are presented with a framed certificate, signed by the UNE president and CGH director, 表彰他们的成就.

Earning this distinction indicates to graduate programs and future employers that 全息学者 are well-rounded individuals committed to carrying into their future lives the broad perspective they’ve worked hard to cultivate during their time in the center.  

I am very glad that I put in the work to become a CGH scholar. The skills I learned and practiced in this class continue to be of value both in my personal and professional life.”
