What is the meaning of "University Common Core Courses"

"University Common Core Courses" refers to a set of courses that are designed to provide a well-rounded education for undergraduate students. These courses typically cover topics such as communication, critical thinking, and student well-being, as well as subjects outside of a student's major program. The University Common Core also includes experiential learning, which allows students to apply their learning in an interdisciplinary context. The HKUST(GZ) Common Core framework consists of 30 credits, which is consistent with the standards of HKUST.
