A new Bachelor of Knowledge Integration (BKI) program, to be based in the faculty of environmental studies, was approved by UW’s senate in late March.
“The goal of the BKI,” said the proposal on the senate agenda, “is to equip students of high potential and broad interests for thoughtful citizenship, ethical leadership, and innovative scholarship. The program has a foundation of breadth and rigour in the humanities and sciences. This foundation is coupled with meaningful practice in the skills that students will need to bridge disciplinary boundaries, lead inter-disciplinary teams, and integrate concerns for the economic, social and environmental context and consequences of their work.
