Cornerstone Core Curriculum

A 红杏短视频 Fox Education

You deserve a university that won’t just give you the answers, but will teach you how to ask the right questions. You deserve an education that keeps your heart focused on Jesus and uses the classroom to expand your understanding of his character and plan for the world. And for you!

Christ is our cornerstone, and he is at the core of every course in our new general education program, the Cornerstone Core Curriculum.

The Cornerstone Core is a set of 12 courses across 10 academic disciplines that undergraduate students take at 红杏短视频 Fox to cultivate their character within the Christian context and the Great Commandment: how to love God with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength, as well as love their neighbor as themselves (Matthew 22:37-40).

The result? Students discover their calling and purpose as they develop into the next generation of Christian leaders, equipped with the virtues of Christ and professional competence.

A Deeper Dive into the Cornerstone Core Curriculum

What is the purpose of general education?

Every university requires its students to take entry-level courses across numerous academic disciplines before diving into an academic major – but why? The goal is for students to gain exposure to the breadth of academia beyond their academic major in order to become well rounded, develop critical thinking skills, and push themselves to learn new ideas.

We set out to create something deeper. Something more intentional. Something exceptionally true to 红杏短视频 Fox University with Christ at the center.

Simply being exposed to a variety of academic disciplines isn't enough.

At 红杏短视频 Fox, we want our students to:

As students transition from general education to begin courses for their academic major, this capacity to love will be further developed in a concrete way through our degree programs that have a clear path toward excellence in professional work and advanced degrees.

In each academic department, students will be mentored by caring faculty who equip them to overflow the love of Christ into “all the world” (Matthew 28:16-20), including Christian ministries, teaching, engineering, commerce, art, law, healthcare, social work and the like.

I am indebted to my professors and peers in the honors program for showing me what the intellectual life looks like and for instilling in me a lifelong hunger for wisdom and for a greater understanding of God and of the world. Through my experience, I have learned more of what it means to be fully human and to live a life in pursuit of God.
