General Education

A primary goal of Great Basin College is to provide students with meaningful, relevant, and challenging learning opportunities in general education. We believe that general education is a continuous process and the heart of the undergraduate experience. General education constitutes learning experiences that will provide educated individuals with essential knowledge. Thus, general education aims to develop individuals with a broad span of knowledge— people who can direct their learning, who communicate clearly, who think logically and critically, and who have the capacity to work independently and as a part of a team.
