    About Us

    The Core Curriculum is a significant component of all undergraduate academic programs offered by QU. It is a set of college-level courses drawn from different disciplines. The core program has been designed to provide undergraduates with a general education; a core of general skills and knowledge that every student needs to broaden their knowledge and perceptions on life. A minimum of 33 credit hours are required to complete the Core Curriculum. The courses are organized and distributed into six packages:

    • Identity and Communication Package (15-18 Credits)
    • Social / Behavioral Sciences Package (3 Credits)
    • Natural Sciences and Mathematics Package (3 Credits)
    • Humanities / Fine Arts Package (0-3 credits)
    • Core Knowledge and Skills Package (0-6 Credits)

    Moreover, in some study plans, depending on the major, the structure has a package titled “Supplemental College/Program Core Requirements.” This package (0-12 Credits) may include different courses related to the mission, objectives and learning outcomes of the Core Curriculum Program.
