Transforming Lives Through Education

This commitment is the foundation of our Whole Human Teaching and Learning philosophy which supports adult learners through prioritizing holistic educational practices to ensure that every student thrives academically, professionally and personally as lifelong learners.
Whole Human Teaching and Learning is defined by three core principles:
- Holistic Engagement – A student-centric approach in which students are supported academically even when non-academic factors may impact learning. Students are engaged in a well-rounded learning experience that encourages active participation and a sense of belonging.
- Accessibility – Ensuring that all students, regardless of background or ability, have access to learning through supportive and accessible teaching methods and design.
- Effective Instructional Methods – Strategies used to enhance the student experience, meet student needs, and prioritize student success.
These principles, grounded in theoretical frameworks, are key to fostering the development of adult learners so they may feel heard, empowered, and valued. This holistic approach will support NU students to succeed in all aspects of life and contribute to the positive transformation of society.
