With a view to enabling universities to more effectively implement general education, the BCRCGE has, during the past several years, carried out a series of studies on university general education and high school liberal studies curricula.  The focus of these studies can be divided as follows:

  • the effectiveness of general education;
  • the philosophy of general education in various regions; and
  • research on liberal studies in high schools.
