The general education experience at MCCCD is composed of specific elements across the curriculum designed to
provide the learner with essential knowledge and skills:
• Communication
• Arts and Humanities
• Numeracy
• Scientific Inquiry in the Natural and Social Sciences
• Information Literacy
• Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking
• Cultural Diversity
General Education Designations (example: (FYC), [SB], [HU], etc.)
Effective Fall 2000 the course evaluation and/or general education designation, as listed in the Arizona Course
Equivalency Guide (CEG) within AZ Transfer, is valid for the term in which the student is awarded credit on the
transcript. A course evaluation and/or general education designation may be subject to change. Given that
curriculum is dynamic at both MCCCD and the institutions to which MCCCD students transfer, students have the
option to petition for general education evaluations and/or general education designations.
The college reserves the right to make necessary course and program changes in order to meet current educational
standards.
