Students must fulfill course requirements in their major, the Academic Core, and take at least two courses in each major outside of their own to graduate. Beyond these requirements, students have the flexibility to choose from elective courses to help broaden their perspective on a particular subject, deepen their knowledge in their major or explore topics that interest them.

Broaden and deepen your education

At AUC, students can enrich their education by following elective courses. These courses are freely chosen and can be taken from any of the three majors (subject to prerequisites), as off-campus courses or during a semester abroad. Electives allow students to explore various subjects, pursue diverse interests or concentrate on a specific area that may or may not be related to their major. The choice of electives is often influenced by a student’s future ambitions. Some students may opt to use electives to deepen their expertise in their major, while others might explore different fields to prepare for specialised Master's or PhD programmes. AUC tutors are available to help students strategically select electives that balance and align with their interests and career goals.
