Undergraduate education
Core Curriculum has been influencial in the American colleges since its introduction at Harvard University in the 1980s. It is designed to afford students broader perspective of learning, in contrast with "concentration" program that constitutes a more specialized part of college education. In this paper I will discuss the undergraduate instruction system at Harvard University as well as the faculty in charge of it. "The Faculty of Arts and Sciences," that administers Harvard College and Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, has over 700 members from 30 departments and 2 divisions, providing a basis of considerable variety and high level of undergraduate courses under the cooperation with the other Faculties at Harvard. Core Curriculum, expected to show "the major approaches to knowledge," consists of 10 areas, students being required to take one course in 8 of them. Each student must also select a field of concentration from more than 40 areas governed by the departments and trans-departmental standing committees. In both Core and concentration, the emphasis is put on the acquisition of methodology and analytical skills, and, through the relatively flexible system, it is always possible for students, according to their ability and interest, to attend more advanced courses including those primarily for graduates.
