This article aims to examine the real state and direction developing a liberal education curriculum for the convergent knowledge education that leads the consilience between sciences in the knowledge information age. Further, This article presents its advisable models that the liberal education in university can apply to the development of curriculum for the convergent education. Today, the convergent and integral education in university became a indispensable task not only in a major field of study, but only in a liberal eduction. A liberal education in university which takes on not only task to form the base for a major education, but also have to develop the basic curriculum corresponding to the convergent and integral education, must also reflect its role again and find its advancement appropriating a demand of our information society and a actual situation of our university. The development of the curriculum have to fulfill a important principle that the main aim of the development is that students can learn the capacity of the consilience totally to understand things and problem situations and get ready a creative capacity to solve the given problems. In addition, the development of the curriculum have to correspond to the essential role of a liberal education. The curriculum must be managed to not only as a foundation for a convergent major education, but also for the personality education of a creative person that have the total point of view and the consilient capacity. I think, the Aureum model that can fulfill this conditions will become a alternative one which a liberal education can follow for the convergent curriculum desirably. The ‘Aureum model’ is a concept model that the Hanyang university developed for the educational course of the convergent education. I think, this model will contribute to improve the basic communicational capacity of students and play a role not only as a foundation for the convergent and integral major education, but also as a basic model for the development of a curriculum to teach the convergent knowledge.
