Academic Programs at SIUC-N
| Each student who pursues a bachelor's degree must meet the university
"Core Curriculum" requirements and the requirements of the academic unit
and the major - primary field of study. SIUC believes in a strong, well-rounded
general education for all students, which includes a common core of knowledge. |
 |
SIUC has, therefore, established a comprehensive and broad-based Core Curriculum
course requirement which serves as the basis for all baccalaureate degrees.
Generally, the university Core Curriculum requirements total 41 credit
hours. SIUC-N offers courses mainly from Core Curriculum requirements and
elective courses. Credit hours earned at SIUC-N are comparable to the Core
Curriculum requirements at the Carbondale campus. Students study at the
Nakajo campus as a pre-major student, learning about American style education,
seeking which field would be more interesting to them and earning actual
credits. The SIUC-N program allows students to take a little more time
to plan their education and career. When students have acquired the skills
to study in American higher education, they continue their study at the
main campus in Carbondale. By that time, students will be confident
about being a student in SIUC and confident also about their achieving
academic success. |
