Core Curriculum Requirements

All students, whether pursuing a four-year bachelor’s degree or a two-year associate degree, will complete a minimum sequence of courses known as the Core Curriculum. The Core Curriculum is designed to provide a foundation for future study and to expand and focus the educational experience into areas not ordinarily covered in a major field of study. The Core Curriculum includes courses in six major areas of study, plus experience in cultural diversity and citizenship. One three-credit hour course must focus substantially on the study of a foreign or minority culture or cultures, or on women and/or issues of gender. This course can be used both toward the Cultural Diversity and the Humanities, Social Science, or General Elective requirements.

Complete details of these requirements appear in the Catalog.
