Distribution Requirements
Thirty six (36) credits are required with 12 credits required from each of the three
general academic areas of humanities, social sciences and natural sciences and
mathematics. No more than six credits from a given academic major may count
toward this distribution requirement.
At most one course which an individual uses to satisfy the specific requirements
in communication, quantitative/analytical reasoning, values/ethics and fitness and
recreation requirements may be used to satisfy distribution requirements in
Humanities (A), Social Sciences (B), or Natural Sciences and Mathematics.
Bloomsburg University Curriculum Committee (BUCC) or an individual academic
department, with the approval of the BUCC, may exclude any of its courses from
being counted as a distribution requirement.
Bloomsburg University Curriculum Committee (BUCC) or an individual academic
department, with the approval of the BUCC, may exclude any of its courses from
being counted as a distribution requirement.
In some cases, qualifications exist in the form of prerequisites, two semester
continuity, etc. Consult the class schedule, the university catalog or the student
information system for prerequisites and other qualifications. Not every general
education course is offered each semester.
The courses appearing here are approved for general education as of June 15,
2003. If a course was previously listed for general education and does not
appear in this class schedule, that course will still fulfill general education credit
for the student, provided the student enrolled in the course during the time the
course was approved for general education. However, students scheduling the
course after the course no longer is approved may not receive general education
credit for the course.
Questions regarding courses listed as general education should be directed to
the academic department which offers the course.
Courses selected to fulfill the distribution requirements must be from at least
three different departments within each of the three groups with two or more
credits required from each department selected. One course which a student
uses to satisfy the specific course requirements in the categories of
communication, quantitative/analytical reasoning and values/ethics may be used
to satisfy the distribution requirements.
Students who otherwise meet the prerequisites are permitted to take any course
offered by the departments listed below, unless the course is expressly excluded
for general education by the university curriculum committee or the department
with the approval of the curriculum committee.
No more than six credits from a given academic major may count toward the
distribution requirement. Students with a double major must adhere to this policy
for one of the majors.
