Quality

Is at our core.

A core curriculum is defined by the state of Texas as “curriculum in the liberal arts, humanities, sciences, political, social, and cultural history, that all graduates of an institution of higher education are required to complete before receiving a baccalaureate degree.”

KC’s Core Curriculum consists of 42 semester credit hours that will transfer to any public college or university in Texas.

After completing the core, a student may need only 18 additional semester credit hours to receive an Associate of Arts or an Associate of Science degree.
