World Wisdom Traditions

zhuangCLAS121R offers an inquiry on wisdom traditions that emerged and developed in antiquity.  This examination focuses on their instruction on how best to live, their guidance on one’s obligations and relationship to others, their ideals for participation in community, and their understanding of the human-environmental connection.  In short, this course is a comparative inquiry on the “examined life.”  CLAS121R Wisdom Traditions is open to all students at UC San Diego and to all students at other UC campuses through cross-campus enrollment.  

This course will be offered in Fall 2025 and in Summer 2025 as part of the Discover UC San Diego Program.
