  • Understanding Texas Education Core Curriculum
    Understanding Texas Education Core Curriculum: Core affects any student who pursues an undergraduate degree here at Lamar University. • New Students o Students should follow their approved Plan of Study, as outlined by their advisor • Students who transfers to Lamar University from a Texas Public Institution o Attributed course work must be accepted, as described below • Students who change their major o Attributed course work must be accepted, as described below • Students who are considered Post Bac – obtaining an additional bachelor’s degree o These students are not automatically considered core completed. Core must be completed for the new degree. If a course is considered core at a Texas Public Institution it will be given a transparent core attribute of: 010 Communication 6 SCH 020 Mathematics 3 SCH 030 Life & Physical Science 6 SCH 040 Language, Philosophy & Culture 3 SCH 050 Creative Arts 3 SCH 060 American History 6 SCH 070 Government/Political Science 6 SCH 080 Social & Behavioral Sciences 3 SCH 090 Component Area Option (A & B) 6 SCH If a student completes a core requirement at a Texas Public Institution, then we must recognize that core class for what it has been attributed – Example, 010 will take the place of 010 at Lamar University. If a student took a course that was part of the Texas Core Curriculum at the sending institution, the receiving institution is required by law, Texas Education Code Section 61.822(d), to award credit for the course within the receiving institution’s core. Coordinating Board rule 4.28(e) states that a student “shall receive academic credit within the core curriculum of the receiving institution for each of the courses that the student has successfully completed in the core curriculum of the sending institution.” If an attributed course is considered a 090 at the sending institution, but is equivalent to an attributed course here that is a 010, then it can be used for 010 or 090.
