Pack Proficiencies - Critical and Creative Thinking

Successful and well-rounded college graduates are proficient in a diverse set of skills that serve as the foundation for any academic or career path they choose to follow. NC State students in every discipline should feel confident in their abilities to clearly communicate an idea, interpret a data point, or think critically to find a creative solution to a problem. That’s why NC State’s faculty selected written and oral communication, quantitative literacy, and critical and creative thinking as NC State’s five General Education Competencies — the “Pack Proficiencies.” These competencies were chosen by our faculty as the key competency areas that students should develop during their time at NC State and have proficiency in upon graduation. These competencies are taught in courses in the General Education Program and are also expected to be intentionally reinforced throughout courses in every degree program at NC State.
