CLE & Previous Guides to Virginia Tech Requirements
Curriculum for Liberal Education
"The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows."
-- Sydney Harris
To assure completion of requirements for the Curriculum for Liberal Education [CLE] at Virginia Tech,
students should consult their academic advisor before registering
for classes. The CLE on-line Guide is a quick reference
to verify which courses have been approved to satisfy particular university-wide requirements.
This Guide to VT's Curriculum for Liberal Education was, in previous years, titled The University Core Curriculum Guide. Students should follow the guide dated for the year in
which they entered Virginia Tech. Guides are listed in the right-hand column by academic year.
For requirements and recommendations for CLE courses in specific areas of study, see the checksheet for each appropriate major: Major Checksheets.
Questions regarding
this CLE policy should be directed to an academic advisor or to Susanna Rinehart,
Assistant Provost for Liberal Education and University Studies, at the Center for Liberal Education.
