Public basic course: it is a compulsory course for students of all majors in higher and secondary specialized schools. Each school may have some differences due to its nature, category and school-running philosophy, but it can be divided into three modules: (1) public basic courses of social sciences, such as the basic principles of Marxism; (2) Public basic courses of natural science, such as universities. The following are seven elective courses:

I. Course classification:

1, literature, history and philosophy: covering literature, philosophy, history and news dissemination;

2. Social sciences such as law: covering law, politics, sociology, psychology, education, military and other disciplines;

3. Science: covering mathematics, physics, chemistry, oceanography, medicine, biology and other disciplines;

4. Engineering: covering machinery, electronic information, chemicals, materials, environmental engineering, architecture and civil engineering;

5. Economic management: covering economics, management and other disciplines;

The above seven elective courses are common courses, and each university will make some adjustments according to its own teaching situation. Although there is no necessary direct connection between the public course and the major studied, it is an essential course to cultivate talents with all-round development in morality, intelligence and physique and provide methodology for further study.

For example, in university study, philosophy is a compulsory course; There are also some national examination courses, such as CET-4 "Oral English". Its meaning is very broad.
