Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences

NOTE: The courses below are used to fill in the General Education requirements noted in the above four-year sequence. Students must take 12 credits total from Arts and Humanities and Social Sciences. Three must come from Arts and Humanities and three must come from Social Sciences. The other three credits may come from either category or may be specificied within the program requirements. Students must satisfy the State’s Civics Literacy requirement and the University’s history requirement. While AMH 2020 satisfies both requirements, if students have satisfied the Civics Literacy requirement in some other way, they are encouraged to take a different AMH course. Fulfilling the Civics Literacy requirement independent of AMH 2020 does not satisfy the state’s core requirement for social sciences: one of the required social science courses must still be taken.

Arts and Humanities

Select 6 to 9 credits from the following courses:

Required, one from the following:
ARH 2000 - Art Appreciation Credits: 3
HUM 2020 - Introduction to the Humanities Credits: 3
LIT 2000 - Introduction to Literature Credits: 3
PHI 2010 - Introduction to Philosophy Credits: 3
MUL 2010 - Music Appreciation Credits: 3
Program required:
IDS 2144 - Legal, Ethical, and Management Issues in Technology Credits: 3
Optional:
HUM 2022 - Explorations in the Humanities Credits: 3

Social Sciences

Select 3 to 6 credits from the following courses. Three credits must come from a History course.

Required, one from the following:
AMH 2020 - American History Since 1877 Credits: 3 Fulfills Civics Literacy requirement
ECO 2013 - Principles of Macroeconomics Credits: 3
PSY 2012 - General Psychology Credits: 3
Optional, one from the following, or one more from Social Science required or Arts and Humanities:
AMH 2010 - American History to 1877 Credits: 3
AMH 2930 - Special Topics Credits: 3
ECO 2023 - Principles of Microeconomics Credits: 3
