Professor Casey Evans was Featured in a Poets and Quants Article

Professor Evans was interviewed for "A Top B-School Unveils A New Curriculum Designed With Gen Z In Mind."


 

The article discussed the Kogod School of Business's overhauled undergraduate curriculum and the process of changing the curriculum.

  • The new Kogod curriculum is more flexible, interdisciplinary, and skills-focused than it was previously.
  • The Kogod curriculum hadn't been changed in decades, and Evans said that her transcript from the 1990s was similar to those of her students.
  • Notably, professionalism is part of a student's grade, which Evans explains is because students seemed less prepared to interact with other people after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Professor Evans said: “We were aware that Gen Z has different needs and perspectives than do millennials. We wanted our curriculum to better reflect the demands of the workplace and the interdisciplinary aspect of business.”
