Expanded Exposure and Opportunity

Our interdisciplinary Academic Center Model breaks with traditional education “silos” where there’s little crossover between departments. As students gain more hands-on experience with interconnected subjects they’re better able to think critically and bridge ideas to tackle whatever comes their way.

Our New Core Curriculum

Going hand-in-hand with our new Academic Center Model is a new way to approach the standard Liberal Arts Core Curriculum found at many colleges and universities.

Unlike traditional core requirements at other liberal arts schools which only touch lightly on various disciplines, the Core Curriculum at CHC digs deeper to provide students not only a more complex, broad-based knowledge base across multiple disciplines, but also accountable skill set development and the acuity outcomes necessary for real world success.

The NEW Core structure aligns with and reinforces the College’s interdisciplinary Academic Center Model, altogether ensuring both exposure to a wide array of fundamental knowledge AND skill outcomes for career success—a valuable combination in today’s complex, global society.
