Notes:
- You do need a minor with this program.
- This program automatically provides for only 15 credit hours of upper division coursework. This means that you will need to select at least some of your electives at the 300-400 level. Keep in mind that you will need 45 upper division credits for graduation.
- There is time for you to take some of your general education electives later in your studies if you wish.
- If you are planning on taking FS 270 as an elective, you should limit your credit hours for that semester to 13.
- Be sure to take three diversity courses, one of which has
to be a racial issues course.
