Most University of Minnesota-Twin Cities campus degree programs require a common, standardized set of liberal education requirements. If you are undecided about a major, you can begin working on these requirements in UC evening and distance education courses and be assured that they will apply toward your degree. If you are already pursuing a degree, check with your college adviser for help in selecting liberal education requirements. For more information about these options, check the current University College Catalog. Individualized Degree Programs Individualized degree programs open up educational opportunities for highly motivated students who need flexibility to earn their B.A. or B.S. degrees.
Students develop degree programs tailored to their interests and talents.
UC links the rich resources of the University's faculty and staff with the individual undergraduate. Students, faculty, and staff work together to take responsibility for the integrity of each degree program and the maintenance of high academic standards. As a result, our graduates gain a strong sense of ownership of their education and confidence in how that education is related to their lives. Working together, the two groups help diversify learning experiences at the University. This program provides an alternative to an already established major by providing students with the flexibility to incorporate both day school and evening coursework from more than one college to achieve their educational goals.
