Enrichment Track III General Studies Electives (GSE) Designated General Studies courses
are noted in each annual course schedule and may be taken at any time
during a student's course of study. (See designated GSE courses in
Course Schedule.) One General Studies course may simultaneously fulfill
requirements for General Education and the major.
General
Studies Elective (GSE) courses have been selected for their
contribution to a broadening, liberating, and enriching educational
experience. GSE courses encourage conceptual thinking and discussion of
ideas, investigate the presuppositions, values, or limits of an
academic discipline, and along with an emphasis on reading and writing
often allow investigation of a chosen problem, topic, or issue. While
most provide exposure to a subject area beyond a basic introductory
level, they are accessible to students from all majors across campus.
These GSE courses are designed to be taken over the course of a
student's college career; please note any prerequisites or
recommendations for course readiness. The GSE courses listed below
apply to the four designated GSE areas in Track III of the SNU General
Education requirements.
This list describes GSE courses offered in regular rotations. Additional courses may appear in new academic years.
GSE courses need not be taken early on in a student's college career.
They should be spread throughout a program of study as available
courses coincide with a student's interests.
