How does UC treat non-traditional curriculum, such as interdisciplinary, integrated and/or project-based coursework?
UC faculty has established clear guidelines that indicate the coursework students are expected to complete in order to be prepared to succeed at the University of California. The course requirements are divided by subject area (“a-g” requirements). Schools are free to offer curriculum in whatever format they feel is appropriate, but students will ultimately be expected to demonstrate completion of the “a-g” subject area requirements to be eligible for admissions. Some charter schools have successfully presented their non-traditional curriculum to UC for “a-g” course approval. (See project-based course resources.
