Class of 2013
“My dean told me about the possibility of studying different subjects at AUC. This in combination with the small classes and the in-class participation made me decide to apply to AUC.”
In your first year at AUC you take ten courses in total: five in the first semester, and five in the second semester.
- You take a minimum of one Big Question course that you select from the four being offered.
- You select your theme and take an introductory course on it in the second semester.
- You can freely choose two or three courses to take as electives. A provisional list of courses from which you can choose for the first semester is given below. (Most of the courses are 100-level major courses, and therefore (depending on the subject) could count towards your major later on.)
- The remaining four or five courses in your first-year programme are filled with Academic Core courses on subjects such as academic English, mathematics (such as research methods and statistics, or calculus and algebra), and logic, information flow and argumentation. You take a course in a foreign language as part of the Academic Core in your first year, and a course called 'Identity and Diversity in a Global City.'
