What are the essential components of the University of Cincinnati General Education Program?
The General Education Program is founded on UC’s longtime commitment to intellectual integrity in all academic programs. While the Program requires all students to have an exposure to a variety of “traditional” academic disciplines in addition to a concentration within a program/major, it also stipulates that all components of a baccalaureate educational experience contribute to the achievement of the four Baccalaureate Competencies (Critical Thinking, Effective Communication, Knowledge Integration, Social Responsibility).
