Big changes are in store for the University of Virginia’s biggest school, starting with a pilot program next fall.
The College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences is planning major reforms to the general education curriculum — the mandatory coursework students need to take to graduate. Officials will gradually roll out the changes between next August and the fall of 2020.
In its final form, it will include interdisciplinary courses for first-year students, a new two-year world languages requirement, more stringent writing coursework and a greater emphasis on math and science.
