The mission and goals of the QLP are aligned with UTSA's Strategic Plan and directly support the University's first strategic initiative to be a premier public research university, providing access to educational excellence and preparing students to become citizen leaders for the global environment. The QLP also provides a structured framework within which to implement the recommendations of the UTSA Blue Ribbon Committee on the Undergraduate Experience that was charged with identifying the knowledge and skills that all UTSA undergraduates have upon graduation. The student learning goals of the QLP will help undergraduate students: (a) Acquire basic quantitative literacy and numeracy skills (b) Effectively communicate the results of their quantitative analysis (c) Acquire discipline-specific advanced quantitative skills For more information see: http://qlp.utsa.edu
