Abstract	Patterns that emerged from reviewing 12 syllabi for courses on the college and university curriculum are discussed, and a sample syllabus is presented. These courses are offered as part of graduate level studies in the field of higher education administration. A marked similarity across curriculum courses was found in terms of overall course content. Most courses addressed the following topics: historical and philosophical foundations; reforms and innovations; components (general education, professional/vocational education, major); curriculum planning and implementation; evaluation; and the dynamics of curriculum change. At the same time, there was variation in topical areas that were emphasized in the courses. There was widespread use of the trilogy sponsored by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching: "Missions of the College Curriculum," Arthur Levine's "Handbook on Undergraduate Curriculum," and Frederick Rudolph's "Curriculum: A History of the American Undergraduate Course of Study Since 1936." Topics not included in most curriculum courses that merit consideration are identified, along with examples of recent research and scholarship in the field of higher education that would enrich curriculum courses. In addition, a syllabus from the University of Arizona is presented. A list of members of the course syllabi network is included. (SW)
