NEW SHORES INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE - SUBVERTING THE PARADIGM OF EDUCATION.
New Shores
International College is an innovative and dynamic college which delivers
the best in inter-disciplinary education in a unique, and uniquely stimulating,
way. Our cross-disciplinary approach educates students to think both widely and
deeply, allowing the intellect to explore beyond the confines of a traditional
education. Graduates leave New Shores as well-informed and rounded
personalities, able to apply wide-ranging analytical & creative skills and
aware of the wider world and their own potential to operate within it.
The New Shores educational philosophy distinguishes between
“expanding the mind’s powers” and “storing it with knowledge”. Naturally, our
students are required to learn and retain a body of data, but, crucially, they
are also taught to apply critical analysis and creativity to whatever that data
might be.
We achieve these challenging goals by structuring our
programmes into two phases: in the first, students apply themselves to a wide
range of studies; in the second, they study within a single faculty. Thirty-six
term courses must be successfully completed by each candidate working towards a
bachelor degree. Some of these will be within one major discipline; however,
New Shores’ philosophy requires that students also spend time working across
other disciplines. This enables our students to benefit not only from the
acquisition of an exceptionally wide range of data, but also to discover
diverse approaches to studying, which they can then apply to their eventual
choice of programme.
Furthermore, we demand that students retain and build on the
fundamental skills they have brought with them from high school, whatever their
choice of discipline at college: writing, quantitative reasoning, and knowledge
of at least one foreign language are fundamental for all graduates today. Too
often, students leave behind one or more of these essential skills, or lose
them by focusing on too narrow a course of study at college: New Shores
graduates are ‘Renaissance men and women’, able to converse across disciplines
and operate in the widest range of professional and social environments.
At New Shores, Best College in Bangalore we are
fully aware that our graduates must be equipped to operate successfully in an
increasingly globalised world, and we pride ourselves on our international
links and outlook. Every New Shores student should arrive with the ambition of
heading out into that world: we encourage all students to spend some time
abroad learning during their college years, whether that be a internship, a
term, or a whole year.
