GRADUATE CERTIFICATES

The Bachelor of General Studies degree (BGS) provides an opportunity for students to select two areas of focus or concentration rather than focusing on one major which diversifies their education and skills. Focus areas or concentrations can be as broad or specific as the student desires. This allows for maximum flexibility to degree completion.

MINORS

There are a number of benefits to majoring or minoring in philosophy. A degree in philosophy is a great complement to another major. The critical thinking, writing, and “out-of-the-box” thinking one learns pairs well with Business, STEM, Computer Science and the Arts. Additionally, a major or minor is a rewarding way to meet your University requirement of 48 hours of upper-division courses while simultaneously studying a subject you find intrinsically rewarding. Finally, studying philosophy is a great way to prepare for a number of graduate and professional programs. Students that may be thinking of going into law or business or pursuing a graduate degree generally outperform most other disciplines on standardized entrance exams.
