Today many sources, such as LinkedIn and the World Economic Forum, argue that creativity and creative thinking are among the most crucial workplace skills. Creativity is an effective resource that resides in all people and within all organizations. Our more than 50 years of research has conclusively demonstrated that creativity can be nurtured and enhanced through the use of deliberate tools, techniques, and strategies. Through our undergraduate courses, our students develop essential life skills that they can apply to their personal and professional lives. In addition, a Minor in Creative Studies can be used to set job applicants apart from their competition and demonstrate to prospective employers that a Buffalo State graduate is prepared with 21st century workplace skills.
