Skills Framework Information:

Within the University of Galway, there is an agreed Graduate Attribute Statement as set out in the Teaching and Learning Strategy 2021-2026. This provides the anchor for our Designing Futures Framework for Student Development.  All identified skills and dispositions are linked back to this agreed and validated structure.

Given the complex range of initiatives involved in the DF project, it was important to develop a core framework that would specify the core skills and dispositions being addressed by the project. This framework is a key resource underpinning all the innovative initiatives created within the project.  It also underpins our use of externally developed approaches, including the ‘Design your Life’ programmes created by Stanford University’s Life Design Lab and on trans-disciplinary learning models pioneered by Georgia Institute of Technology.
