Attending facilitated Think Tanks regarding relevant and contested global issues will allow postgradaute students participating in the GLP to extend their research and critical thinking skills beyond the passive learning experience of lectures and allow them participate in an environment of discussion, participation and learning.
These Think Tanks will require students to make an informed argument about a several global issues from a number of disciplines and allow collaboration with students from different academic and professional backgrounds.
Students must attend 6 of the 2.5 hour Think Tanks in order to meet this requirement of the program. Material generated in these Think Tanks will be distributed to members of the undergradute GLP for learning purposes.
