The undergraduate curriculum at the Zicklin School of Business provides you with the fundamental business knowledge to succeed in a competitive business world. The required business classes for the BBA are supplemented with arts and science courses outlined in Baruch’s Pathways curriculum to give you a well-rounded general education. Visit the Current Undergraduate Students page for information on Baruch’s Core Curriculum for students admitted prior to Fall 2013.
Pathways at Baruch (Beginning Fall 2013)
Beginning in Fall 2013, all CUNY colleges will have a uniform set of general education requirements known as CUNY Pathways. Although the courses that can be used to fulfill these requirements will differ from college to college, the basic set of requirements will be the same throughout the CUNY system, and with few exceptions any requirement that a student fulfills at one college will be considered fulfilled at any other college to which he or she transfers.
Students who enter Baruch in Fall 2013 will have to complete Pathways at Baruch to obtain a degree. Beginning in July 2013, continuing students will have the choice either to opt-in to the Pathways requirements or to complete the set of general education requirements that is currently in place at the college (the Baruch Common Core).
