Canadian Military College Core Curriculum
The Core Curriculum represents the common body of knowledge that is mandatory for all Canadian Military College NCdt/OCdt.
The Common Core is comprised of two distinct themes, or “bodies of knowledge”, that must be acquired by all NCdt/OCdt, regardless of their program of study:
- The minimum standard in mathematics (which also includes logic and information technology) and science (chemistry or biology and physics);
- A foundation in Canadian history, language and culture, political science, international relations, leadership and ethics.
In addition to this knowledge, which is shared by all, there are compulsory subjects specific to each of the three branches of study (engineering, sciences, arts).
