Recommended Undergraduate Classes

In your college years,Recommended Undergraduate Classes Articles you should take classes to increase both your general knowledge (breadth) and your knowledge about a particular academic field (depth). I believe that there is enough time to take many classes in both the breadth and depth groups. I’ve been out of college for more than a decade, and I still think about the classes I took and didn’t take. Here, then, are my recommendations for the breadth courses.

Literature, Philosophy, Language, and Linguistics.
–A year of English literature courses, surveying ancient to modern literature.
–One Introduction to Western Philosophy course.
–One Principles of Critical Reasoning or Principles of Argumentation course (a philosophy or speech course).
–A year of a foreign language, unless you are fluent in a second language.
–One Introduction to Linguistics course.

Visual and Musical Arts.
–One Introduction to Art History course.
–One Music Appreciation course or Introduction to Musical Theory course.
