For the B.S., the student must complete a second mathematics course. The particular course depends on the major field of study. In addition, the student must complete a natural or physical science course different from the Area B-3 science requirement. The major provides the student an area of specialty as a foundation for graduate study or as a stepping stone for a career. Several baccalaureate majors offer multiple specialization programs.
Electives are courses in the major or minor fields or other subjects that interest the student.
Electives should be selected in consultation with the student's academic advisor. These are explained in the Academic Enhancement Programs section in this catalog. All programs are designed for upward mobility to earn the baccalaureate degree. In addition to the specialty courses, each program has its foundation within a liberal arts base. All Associate of Arts degrees are offered by University College.
