Cornerstone Core
The Cornerstone Core
The Cornerstone University core curriculum reflects our commitment to our students as we teach them to understand, navigate, and ultimately influence and shape culture and society as Christ followers. Our goal is to educate bold Christ-centered influencers who embody the following:
-
Expertise in their field of study and chosen vocation
-
Exemplification of superb personal and professional ethics and integrity
-
Excellence in written, verbal, and non-verbal communication
-
Embodiment of strong relational intelligence and networking presence in diverse community contexts
-
Integration of the gospel and Christian worldview in a sophisticated manner within their field of study, chosen vocation, and personal life
-
Manifest a vibrant and mature relationship with Jesus Christ
The Cornerstone core curriculum is the foundation of that goal. The curriculum builds upon two first year courses, Academic Foundations and Christian Worldview, that induct students into the Cornerstone ethos and cast all aspects of their lives within the framework of the Christian worldview and, thus, the story of God’s work in the world. All things are made by God and for His glory and we are called to be part of this creation venture.
The core courses are mutually reinforcing among themselves and with the courses in a student’s chosen major. They are intended to provide our students with an opportunity to become well-rounded as they pursue our GOODLife questions (focusing on God, Others, Ourselves, our Dual citizenship, and the Good Life) that are threaded through the entire general education core. These questions will be answered from the perspective of multiple disciplines taught from the Christian worldview and are intended to form our students in their thoughts, words, and deeds.
Our students will take courses in Bible and theology, written and verbal communication, the arts and humanities, the empirical sciences, mathematics, social sciences, and global studies. The breadth of courses are intended to provide a broad and cumulatively deep understanding of God’s creation.
The core curriculum culminates in a senior capstone course in the major that equips students to apply the skills and insights gained in the core and in their major to their chosen vocation in extraordinarily sophisticated ways. We intend all CU graduates to walk boldly as Christ-centered influencers wherever they go, and the combination of the core curriculum with a graduate’s chosen major supports their ability to do so.
Our understanding of a Christian liberal arts education will also provide our students with the agility for an ever-changing job market, where graduates will work at several organizations and are likely to switch careers multiple times.
