• Curriculum history as an academic eld, with a few indi-vidual exceptions, is based in the United States, with its predominantly (Reformed) Calvinist culture. And although in the late nineteenth century the genre “history of education” spread from Germany first to France and then to the English-speaking world, curriculum history in particular and curriculum studies in general have remained largely restricted to the English-speaking world. 

•  It presupposed an institutional environment at universities or colleges, as a rule in departments of curriculum and instruction (or the like), which emerged in the 1960s and 1970s in the context of teacher education at universities.

• It is only since the late 1990s that curriculum history/studies has been internationalized by providing a frame in which different international case studies are being developed, often for comparative purposes.

• By the seventeenth century, the University of Glasgow also referred to its "course" of study as a "curriculum", producing the first known use of the term in English in 1633.

•  By the nineteenth century, European universities routinely referred to their curriculum to describe both the complete course of study (as for a degree in surgery) and particular courses and their content. 

• By 1824, the word was defined as "a course, especially a fixed course of study at a college, university, or school.

• In the early years of the 20th century, the traditional concepts held of the "curriculum is that it is a body of subjects or subject matter prepared by the teachers for the students to learn." It was synonymous to the "course of study" and "syllabus".

1. The syllabus is described as the summary of the topics covered or units to be taught in the particular subject. Curriculum refers to the overall content, taught in an educational system or a course.
2. Syllabus varies from teacher to teacher while the curriculum is same for all teachers.
3. The term syllabus is a Greek origin, whereas the term curriculum is a Latin origin.
4. The curriculum has a wider scope than the syllabus.
5. The syllabus is provided to the students by the teachers so that they can take an interest in the subject. On the other hand, normally the curriculum is not made available to the students unless specifically asked for.
6. Syllabus is descriptive in nature, but the curriculum is prescriptive.
7. Syllabus is set for a particular subject. Unlike curriculum, which covers a particular course of study or a program.
8. Syllabus is prepared by teachers. Conversely, a curriculum is decided by the government or the school or college administration.
9. The duration of a syllabus is for a year only, but curriculum lasts till the completion of the course.
