And it's SDG's

 

 


The graph above illustrates the results of a review of all of UCC鈥檚 modules for coverage of the SDGs.  The review was undertaken as part of the STARS submission process and the methodology can be accessed on UCC鈥檚 .   Currently 6% of all UCC modules relate directly to the Sustainable Development Goals.   60% of UCC鈥檚 Academic Departments offer at least one module related to sustainable development and 16% of students graduate having taken at least on of these modules.  The most relevant degree streams and programmes can be found below.

 

UCC鈥檚 new Academic Strategy was launched in December 2018 and focuses on 6 key priorities.  The first of these is to develop a 鈥淐onnected Curriculum鈥, with sustainability and transdisciplinarity as two key elements.

The curriculum will facilitate students to develop values, skills and aptitudes that promote civic participation, social inclusion, sustainability, digital fluency and impactful, global citizenship.  More information can be found at the Deputy President and Registrar鈥檚 website.

 

Developing a Connected Curriculum: Integrating the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals within UCC鈥檚 Curriculum

In October 2019, UCC was awarded funding from the National Forum for Teaching and Learning to deliver a project under the Forum鈥檚 鈥淭eaching and Learning Enhancement Within and Across Disciplines鈥 programme.  The project seeks to support the professional development of UCC staff by enhancing teaching and learning both within (SDGs of relevance to the discipline) and across (cross-cutting competencies and skills) disciplines. Specifically, the initiative objective is to develop training resources for teaching staff including workshops and an online toolkit.

This project will undertake:

  • Desk-based research into global best-practice
  • Focus group sessions with students and staff to co-produce desired learning outcomes
  • Open Sessions highlighting best practice internally and promoting learning across disciplines
  • Developing an online toolkit on SDGs, Universities and Learning outcomes
  • Curriculum design for sustainable development

It is expected that the toolkit will be an open resource for all UCC teaching staff, promoted by CITRL through staff training, as well as the sustainability office. The ultimate outcome will be better coverage, measurement and assessment of the integration of SDGs within the UCC Curriculum.

The project officially commenced in March 2020 and will conclude in May 2021.  Stay tuned to this website for more updates!
