A syllabus is typically a schedule of curriculum for a given school term. So on the first day of class, I hand out a syllabus, which talks about the expectations of the course, guidelines for grading, and a schedule for what material, assignments and tests will take place during the quarter.
A syllabus, then, includes curriculum, among other things. Curriculum is the content of the course itself. The chosen concepts and ideas, the core material you expect students to learn. A syllabus also typically includes the materials such as books, articles, websites, etc. that a student is expected to use to learn the curriculum.
