Educational Philosophy
The Monterey Institute is one of a few higher educational institutions in the US to have an international focus from its conception. Over the years, the Institute has developed its own pedagogical approach to international professional education which it calls the "Monterey Way". This learning model, which mixes rigorous interdisciplinary analysis with second language mastery and immersive learning experiences, ensures that students are developing culturally competent solutions to global issues. The "Monterey Way" is not a detached educational philosophy, but a mission-driven approach that hopes to make a difference in the world - hence the motto "Be the Solution".

Famous quotes containing the words educational and/or philosophy:
“The educational system in large countries will always be utterly mediocre, for the same reason that the cooking in large kitchens is mediocre at best.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Methinks it would be some advantage to philosophy if men were named merely in the gross, as they are known. It would be necessary only to know the genus and perhaps the race or variety, to know the individual. We are not prepared to believe that every private soldier in a Roman army had a name of his own,—because we have not supposed that he had a character of his own.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
