The Core Curriculum contains within it two separate themes;

  1. The first theme is the minimum standard for mathematics (which also includes logic and information technology) and sciences (chemistry and physics).

  2. The second theme is a basic requirement in the study of canadian history, language and culture, politics, international relations and leadership and ethics.

The Physical Education programme is divided into three areas:

  1. Intercollegiate sports,
  2. Intramural sports, and

All cadets must take part in both the physical training programme and one of the sports programmes.

Professional Military Training is required of all cadets in all four years.
