Undergraduate Undergraduate Studies - BE THE DIFFERENCE

AUM!

 

General Education

General education courses provide foundation in the liberal arts, social sciences, natural sciences, and writing for students in all majors. These courses enhance the student’s self-awareness, ability to think critically, provide multicultural perspectives on modern society and develop an understanding of international and global issues. They also support the majors by enhancing writing skills, critical thinking, developing leadership skills and increasing knowledge of scientific methods applicable to all fields of study.

Students majoring in management, human development, or human services administration are required to complete a total of 30 credit hours in general education. Students majoring in humanities, human resource management or liberal arts have some of their general education requirements met by course work within the major. Each course is worth three credits.

A/H422 Modern World Literature (or designated substitute)

COM425 Expository Writing

The faculty encourages students majoring in fields other than humanities to consider including all or part of the World Classics Curriculum (described under the humanities major) in their degree plans. Many Undergraduate Studies graduates who have taken the World Classics Curriculum have expressed appreciation for this broadening and rewarding experience.
