Universities don't have to attend classes every day. Compulsory courses in the whole school refer to the courses that all students must take, mainly including political theory courses, foreign language courses, sports and military theory courses, computer courses, and some schools, such as China Renmin University, also have math courses and law courses. These courses are generally required and assessed by the whole school, and there are some differences between liberal arts students and science students at most.
Specialized compulsory courses refer to the courses that all departments stipulate that students in this department must take. These courses have laid a solid foundation for majors and ensured students' adaptability to study and employment.
