Residential Curriculum
TWU Housing and Dining puts student learning at the heart of our work, and our residential curriculum ensures that our residence halls foster the best learning environment possible. Our curriculum is linked to TWU's mission to cultivate engaged leaders and global citizens in a climate that inspires excellence and a pioneering spirit.
Welcome to the NEST
Through our curriculum, students will learn how to be better Neighbors, Explorers, Scholars and Trailblazers.

As Explorers, students will learn more about who they are and what they want out of work, school and relationships. Students will also learn to be more mindful of their own identities and how these interact with the community. |
