What is the University System of Georgia Core Curriculum Framework?
For over 100 years, undergraduate education in the United States has been divided into two basic components: general education and study in a major field of specialization. General Education provides students with foundational knowledge and abilities thought to be essential for becoming an educated person and for more advanced study in a major. Within the University System of Georgia (USG), the core curriculum framework is that component of the general education curriculum common to all USG institutions. It consists of credit hour and distribution requirements and also regulations guiding transfer of credit between system institutions. Additional information can be found here.
