*Notes:


  1. Consult with your College/School advisor for specific and/or additional requirements relating to general education courses.  For example, COM 101  is required for business, theology, and education majors and teacher certification students.  MA 110  is required for all majors in the School of Business.  Education majors and teacher certification students have very specific requirements, particularly regarding English, Mathematics, History, and Laboratory Sciences.
  2. FS 100 Freshman Seminar (1 semester hour) is required for freshmen only. 
  3. ZCH 007 Chapel (noncredit) is required of traditional undergraduate students. The number of semesters of Chapel (1 to 4 semesters) is based on entry classification. Students in the Center for Adult Programs are exempt from chapel.
  4. Students earning a Bachelor of Arts degree must also take twelve semester hours of a modern foreign language.  See specific requirements in the Modern Foreign Language section of the catalog.

 

Total Semester Hours: Forty-Six


Notes:


An intercultural studies major earns a Bachelor of Arts degree requiring twelve semester hours of foreign language  study. An intercultural studies major may meet the language requirement with modern foreign language study. A student who selects biblical language to meet the requirement may choose six hours of Hebrew and six of Greek. With the permission of the advisor, a student may take six hours of a modern foreign language and six of a biblical language to satisfy this requirement for the B.A. degree.

Intercultural studies majors are strongly encouraged to select a minor in a field that will provide marketable skills for intercultural service.
