The University of the Sunshine Coast offers three Core Courses for students enrolled in an undergraduate program.

Full-time undergraduate students are generally required to complete at least two of the three Core Courses by the end of their second year of enrolment, or the equivalent for part time students.

The Core Courses are:

• COR109 Communication and Thought
• COR110 Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship
• COR111 Environment, Technology and Sustainability

The Core Courses provide:

• a firm grounding in inquiry-based learning
• an opportunity to enhance the ability to communicate ideas and information
• guidance in developing interdisciplinary contexts of specific topics and subjects
• an environment which fosters the consideration of social impacts
• a stimulating learning environment encouraging intellectual growth and curiosity

The Core Courses aim to:

• be a positive and constructive introduction to the university experience
• provide effective progression into other courses in all faculties
• encourage students to explore innovative and creative uses of technology
• contribute to the development of graduates who are good communicators
