The Core-21 Advantage
Effectively communicate your ideas
Most employers are looking for great communicators. Writing- and speaking-intensive Core-21 courses will sharpen these skills, making you a stronger candidate as you pursue your career.
Be a better problem solver
Core-21 complements and enhances the expertise of your major. The future hold big challenges — to solve them, you’ll need to see connections where others don’t. By applying knowledge from outside your major, you’ll be able to approach issues from multiple perspectives.
Future-proof your degree
Acquiring broad knowledge now allows you to be a more adaptive learner down the road. Instead of becoming obsolete, you’ll have the skills and tools you’ll need to stay ahead of the curve.
