Liberal Studies through Social Sciences, B.A.
This plan assumes the student:
- Has completed 70 transferable units, including all lower-division GE courses; and
- Is attending full time. (atleast 12 units)
- Approved Summer or Winter Intersession coursework may shorten this schedule
Courses are chosen each semester from a variety of disciplines to provide the full range of major and GE requirements needed to complete the degree in two years. Since fields, rather than specific classes, are required for the major, the plan shows the way that the student would complete coursework in each of the required fields, as well as the elective units within the major.
