General Education

You must successfully complete the General Education program, which is designed to give breadth to your university degree. For most degree programs you are required to take one course from each of the following areas.

• Critical Thinking
• Arts Appreciation
• Values
• Communications
• Mathematics
• Historical Consciousness
• Cultural Understanding
• Humanities
• Scientific Understanding

A Broad General Education

One of the unique features of the American style degree is that it enables the student to obtain a broad general education base whilst also studying a chosen discipline in depth.  This means students can explore future career interests without committing to an area of specialism before they are ready to do so.

After completing the General Education requirements students will be able to:

• expand their knowledge in disciplines outside their specialisation
• improve critical and analytical skills
• strengthen academic skills in critical thinking, communication, time management, public speaking and presentations: which will enhance your professional career.
