The Faculty of Business, Economics and Law will support a vision which recognises that students are engaged in 'whole-life' learning throughout their time at Surrey that increases their employability and develops their intellectual, personal and professional identity.

• a vision which sees 'whole life learning’ as encompassing ‘life-long learning’, the ‘life-wide curriculum', and ‘wellness’ and wider student experience approaches; and which encompasses both formal and informal learning no matter where it takes place, e.g. in class, on placement, extra-curricular, university life, etc.
• a vision which embeds intellectual, personal and professional development within the academic curriculum whilst encouraging and enabling students to make use of the wide range of developmental opportunities offered by the university.
• a vision which sees professional training and exposure to the professional context as a key component of personal, professional and academic development and encourages all students to actively participate in these opportunities.
