It provides a broader and more varied education than many other systems by offering three kinds of courses necessary for graduation:
General Education Requirements: These are courses which require students to distribute their attention across a fairly wide range of disciplines and are designed to expand students' horizons and sharpen their intellectual skills. These courses are required of all students regardless of their field of specialization.
Field (Core) Requirements: These requirements consist of those courses which provide specific instruction and practical training in the area of a student's specialization and are required of all students specializing in that field.
Elective Courses: These are courses that students can take from any field of specialization (other than their own) that interests them and are designed to bridge and link a student's field of specialization to related fields.
