Vision

Our vision of ‘whole life’ learning embraces the ideas of ‘life-long learning’, ‘life-wide-learning’ and ‘personal wellbeing’. It connects and embeds academic and professional development within the disciplinary curriculum whilst encouraging and enabling students to make use of the wide range of developmental opportunities offered by the university and the wider world. It sees the professional training experience as a key component of learner development and we encourage our undergraduate students to engage in work experiences. Our vision of learning encourages students to actively participate in all the opportunities for learning that life has to offer and seeks to recognize and value learning gained through experience outside the academic curriculum. Our commitment to this vision is manifested in our decision to develop an Award to enable the University to publicly recognise the learning gained from experiences outside the formal curriculum. Professor Christopher Snowden Vice-Chancellor, University of Surrey.
