The Core Requirements
The Core Requirements
The DP is built around three core components that are central to the programme's educational philosophy.
Theory of Knowledge (TOK)
Theory of Knowledge (TOK)
Theory of Knowledge (TOK) is a course focused on critical thinking and inquiry into the process of knowing, rather than on learning a specific body of knowledge. It challenges students to question the bases of knowledge, to be aware of subjective and ideological biases, and to develop a personal mode of thought based on analysis of evidence and reasoned argument.
Extended Essay (EE)
Extended Essay (EE)
The Extended Essay (EE) is an independent, self-directed piece of research, culminating in a 4,000-word paper. It provides an opportunity for students to engage in personal research into a topic of their own choice, with the guidance of a supervisor.
Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS)
Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS)
Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS) is at the heart of the Diploma Programme. It involves students in a range of experiences and projects alongside their academic studies. The three strands of CAS are often interwoven with particular activities.
