REQUIREMENTS

              CMC has various general education requirements that all students, regardless of major., must fulfill. These include three semesters of social sciences, two semesters each of science and humanities courses, and one semesters of literature, math (calculus-based), and world civilization. Additionally, all students must either demonstrate proficiency in a foreign language or complete three semesters of foreign language.
         
              An additional requirement for all CMC students is the senior thesis, a major research paper or project designed by the student. Normally completed during the senior year and overseen by a faculty adviser, this one or two semester venture is usually on a topic of interest within the student's major field of study. Social science and humanities students usually write thesis paper ranging from thirty to hundred of pages, science students design and carry out experimental research, and often students choose to do a creative project such as a short film of a novel.
