4.4 Programs of Study for the General Degree of Bachelor of Science

  1. The Program of Study for the General Degree of Bachelor of Science is determined by the student’s declared Major(s).

    1. When a student has declared a single Major, that student’s Program of Study shall consist of the requirements for the corresponding Major program, as set forth in the Program Regulations.

    2. When a student has declared more than one Major in a combination for which a Joint Major program exists, as set forth in the Joint Program Regulations, that student’s Program of Study shall consist of the requirements for the Joint Major program.

    3. When a student has declared more than one Major in a combination for which no corresponding Joint Major program exists, that student’s Program of Study shall consist of the requirements for each of the respective Major programs, called a Double Major program.

  2. The Program of Study for a General Degree shall normally require the student to complete not fewer than 36 credit hours nor more than 45 credit hours in courses from each of the Major subjects, except in cases where it has been deemed that an appropriate rationale exists to warrant the requirement of an extraordinary number of credit hours.

  3. A Program of Study may require the student to successfully complete additional courses from subject areas other than the Major subject(s).

  4. A student’s Program of Study shall also include such additional requirements of each Major department as are approved by the Senate and printed in the Calendar.
