In the first two years students undertake an interdisciplinary education that nurtures talent and a broad exposure to a variety of fields. Student take a range of courses across four major categories. Core courses offer a sampling of the seven major Liberal Arts fields of study. Enablers supplement their academic, creative and career-related skills. Creatives allow students to explore their extra-curricular interests. Projects involve experiential learning and research or seminar style activities where students critically examine the world around them using tools and methods derived from a range of fields.
The third year is dedicated to a more focused career-aligned specialization. We also encourage internships and international exposure to all students.
· Foundations across varied disciplines in the first two years (four semesters)
· Skills-based workshops across three years
· Choice-based specialization and electives only in the third year
· Field work, site visits,
internships between semesters

first 2 years and students choose their specialization only in the final year.
