Everyone (or at least a good part of the population) at some point in their life changes jobs or even switches careers completely. This can at times be a little frightening. But what are some of the most common skills<\/strong> you need to succeed<\/strong> both in your academic career as well as your professional one? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll probably know them as soft skills, attributes that allow you to effectively engage and communicate with the environment around you<\/strong>. That\u2019s why there is a distinction between hard and soft skills. As you may already know, hard skills are what you learn in a specific field from a computer program to speaking multiple languages. Not everyone who embarks on their academic journey will need to have the same hard skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why today, in collaboration with the University of Mount Union, we want to share with you the option of directing your academic focus to the Integrative Core<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The University of Mount Union<\/a>\u2019s mission is to \u201cprepare students for fulfilling lives, meaningful work, and responsible citizenship<\/strong>.\u201d The approach they have taken is to expose students to a traditional understanding of the liberal arts<\/strong><\/a> which values the Integrative Core. Essentially, the university provides students with a well-rounded education in a particular field of study combined with liberal arts. This gives students a broad foundation of knowledge that enables them to create their judgment based on critical thinking<\/strong>. Mount Union encourages its students to challenge the difficulties of tomorrow by being able to formulate their ideas rather than being taught a particular point of view. (Soft) skills such as critical thinking and critical and analytical problem solving<\/strong> are what give the foundations to Integrative Core education.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To excel in the workplace, nowadays, college graduates should have a deep understanding<\/strong> of their main field of interest alongside a broad variety of skills and knowledge. This is because we should always be up-to-date with a workplace that is fluid, where a mix of cultures and technological advancement requires us to have \u201cintegrative and synthetic thinking<\/strong><\/a>\u201d. The Integrative Core helps students learn how to \u201cthink in and across various contexts, disciplines, and cultural situations<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s all about pushing your boundaries and achieving your potential<\/strong> through an education that prepares you for a variety of situations. The Integrative Core is one of the 4 pillars<\/strong><\/a> of Mount Union\u2019s academic programs that you\u2019ll complete throughout your studies. And did we mention that you\u2019d be an international and friendly city<\/strong> in Ohio? This is one of the best states where you can enjoy a great American experience!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fun fact: Ohio is known for its wide range of buckeye trees that produce small brown nuts. Legend says that these nuts bring good luck if you carry them with you.
