Anybody have good recommendations on courses or a curated study list for someone new to Design in general? Looking to learn fundamentals before diving into more detail on any specific field.

There is no more important skill for a designer.
Even creating graphic beauty or a clear data visualization fall into this category--it's your own aesthetic or intellectual judgement you use, but you always have the user in mind.
No other general principles apart from the need to be creative and open to possibilities. (Creativity is a separate issue.)
