Overview
Approved core courses are certified to meet specific University Core requirements. The purpose of the University Core is, in part, to provide students with an experience of different approaches to learning, different disciplinary frameworks for analysis, and different perspectives on issues and beliefs. The University Core recognizes the value of offering students the opportunity to build a strong liberal learning foundation throughout their undergraduate education. A more complete explanation of the University Core is found in the Undergraduate Catalog.

Membership of the Core Curriculum Reporting Committee shall be composed of one elected faculty member from each of the colleges with academic departments, as well as the Library, and an appointed representative of the Honors College.

The non-voting ex officio members of the Core Curriculum Reporting Committee shall consist of a representative of the Office of the Provost; a representative of the Registrar’s office; a representative of the Admissions office; and a representative of Academic Advising.
