What will I learn?

Begin your renewed journey in collaboration with a UCM advisor who will review your transcript, understand your goals and develop a plan for your individualized Bachelor of Arts in General Studies, which will include a modern language requirement. Upon its approval, you’ll then choose the courses you want to take to fulfill your remaining credits in specific areas that may include:Arts and humanitiesSocial and behavioral sciencesScience, technology and mathematicsYour concentration areaYour coursework will culminate in a capstone, which is part of your concentration area hours. In alignment with the Competency 10 assessment - which measures your knowledge related to your area of study - we’ll follow the guidelines of another UCM major of interest that has no prerequisites. For example, students interested in health care or sociology may want to take a course that compares socioeconomic status with health care access. While your General Studies degree isn’t specialized, you may still have the opportunity to focus your education. Your previous coursework may help you find an easy path to declare a specific minor or earn an undergraduate certificate and enhance your resume.
