Pete Schuler Interdisciplinary programs, under the auspices of the Dean for Undergraduate Education, consists of university programs established on a programmatic basis rather than within a single college or department. This includes the University Honors Program, Liberal Studies, Special Majors, General Studies, and Freshman General Studies Thematic. This list of courses has been modified since the 1999-2001 Catalog was printed.
All courses are lecture and discussion and employ letter grading unless otherwise stated.
Some prerequisites may be waived with faculty permission. Many syllabi are available on the Chico Web. Freshman General Studies Thematic is a one-year program by application only for 40 freshman students which brings together professors from several disciplines for the purpose of integrating 33 units of General Education. The goal is to explore how art, history, social science, natural science, and the humanities can be integrated around a central theme. There is abundant opportunity for individual expression through writing, academic activity, and art.
