There's probably a typo or an error somewhere along the line.
Cursus is a 4th declension masculine noun. Cursuum (with 2 u's) is a genitive plural - that would translate to 'of the courses'. Cursum (single u) is the accusative singular. That's what would be used as the direct object of a verb.
I suspect it's supposed to be 'Cursum Perficio', Which would translate to 'I finish the course.'

It's really not "great bear", as others have stated, but "larger bear" or "greater bear." This is in contrast to "Ursa Minor", the "smaller bear." "Great bear" would be "ursa magna". "Major" is the Latin comparative form meaning "larger" or "bigger." (You often see the translation "great bear"; I'm saying that the conventional translation doesn't really match the Latin words.) My Latin dictionary shows two different words for bear -- ursus (masculine) and ursa (feminine). Therefore, the most literal translation is "the larger she-bear."

It has to be cursum
I thoroughly complete the course
if it's cursuum that means I throughly complete _____ of courses, but there's no direct object then.

"I am doing a course" is one possibility.
But it depends on the context. Cursus can meanrunning; speed/zeal; charge, onrush; forward movement/march; revolution (wheel),course/direction, line of advance, orbit; voyage/passage; race; career; series;
