The Ohio Wesleyan General Education Connection Experience (OWU GenEd CX) is a key part of the OWU curriculum

During this experience, students translate classroom content and theory into practice in contexts beyond traditional academic settings.

To fulfill the GenEd CX requirement, students complete a four-step process:

• Planning & Approval. Develop and submit your CX proposal for review.
• Execution. Participate in your approved experience outside the classroom.
• Reflection. Analyze, document, and reflect on your learning journey.
• Communication. Share your experience, typically at a Connection Conference.
