A solid academic foundation

Curriculum forms are now available to download from the on-line forms section of this web page.

It is the purpose of the Common Curriculum to provide all students with a solid academic foundation and the fundamental tools necessary to continue developing their intellectual ability and inquiry though a broad liberal arts education.   The Common Curriculum is completed by fulfilling specific cross-disciplinary requirements, disciplinary course requirements, and the global language proficiency.

For students entering CSB/SJU in the fall of 2007 or later, the Common Curriculum replaces the Core Curriculum.  Students who were enrolled and attending classes prior to the fall of 2007 should still follow the requirements of the Core Curriculum.

The Common Curriculum is comprised of three academic areas:

• Cross-disciplinary courses
• Disciplinary courses
• Global language proficiency
