Curriculum & Courses
Major Requirements
The following are the major’s requirements. Students must also fulfill all other requirements in the degree to obtain 120 credits for graduation.
Of the 12 courses in the major, at least six must be completed at the 200 level or higher. A minimum of two courses must be completed at the 300 level or higher. Courses may only apply to one requirement in the major. No Foundations courses can count toward the major. Students may not count their liberal studies language requirement courses toward the major as well.
Because of the broad-based, interdisciplinary nature of this program, transfer students will be allowed to apply only three transfer courses directly to the major. However, the coursework completed in the liberal studies major will apply directly to a student’s liberal arts core, ensuring that the program can be completed in a timely fashion.
