Free-standing labs are not considered separate courses. All students majoring in a field in Natural Sciences must complete one course in each of the six disciplines in the Social Sciences division listed below for a total of 18 credits. These degree requirements apply to students who will complete degrees in Humanities at Johnstown. Students who plan to relocate to other schools of the University should be guided by the requirements set forth in the appropriate University Catalog. This experience is designed to provide students with field experience in their chosen major.
Admission requires that the student seek permission from department chairperson.
In addition to an academic major, a student may elect to pursue a minor in another academic discipline. The specific requirements for each minor are established by the individual academic disciplines. However, all minors require the completion of a minimum of 18 credits of course work, at least 12 credits of which must be in upper-level courses. The major in American Studies provides a structure for highly individualized interdisciplinary study. The major is designed for those students who wish to pursue areas of interest for which no established program exists in the Humanities area.
