*The following majors are offered through the College of Liberal Arts &
Sciences (CLAS) at the Edwards Campus:
Literature, Language and Writing, BA/BGS
A degree in English will help develop the skills of dealing with concepts and abstractions, cretiviy and good
communication and people skills. An undergraduate degree in English is an excellent base from which to
explore career options and good preparations for a variety of advanced degrees in areas such as business or law.
Students should complete ENGL 121, ENGL 122 and a third English course at JCCC. These are prerequisites for
the upper-level English courses in the major at Edwards. It is highly recommended that students complete a third
English course that has Comp I and Comp II as the prerequisites.
Psychology, BA/BGS
A bachelor’s degree in psychology provides undergraduate students with a broad knowledge of psychology to
achieve both personal and professional goals. A psychology major can be useful for careers in business, teaching,
medicine, nursing, law, social work, counseling, student services, child development, administration or human
resources. Some students complete the major to become psychologists themselves. Through program curriculum,
students will have a better understanding of human behavior, thinking and emotion. Students should take PSYC
130 General Psychology, PSYC 209 Statistics in Psychological Research, PSYC 210 Research Methods in Psychology, BIOL 121 Intro to Biology OR BIOL 135 Cell and Molecular Biology and MATH 171 College Algebra at JCCC
since these courses are prerequisites for most of the courses in the PSYC major.
Public Administration, BA/BGS
The Public Administration program is desinged to provide graduates with the necessary knowledge and skills
for planning, implementing and evaluating public programs. This knowledge will help organizations be more
effectively preparted to deal with local and global diversity. Students should complete MATH 171 College
Algebra at JCCC. Students may take POLS 245 Introduction to Public Administration at JCCC which is equivalent
to PUAD 330 Intro to Public Administration at KU. (NOTE: POLS 245 will not count towards jr.sr. hours at KU.)
Completion of POLS 124 American National Government at JCCC is strongly encouraged.
*A minimum of 120 credit hours are required. No more than 64 hours from a two-year institution may be applied
toward the 120 hour total. Must include 45 upper-level hours, 30 of those hours must be at KU. A grade of “C”
or better must be earned in each course to transfer. Transfer “D” grades are not accepted or applied toward any
degree in the College of Arts & Sciences.
To see how your credits transfer to KU, visit http://www.admissions.ku.edu/credits and choose Kansas, then JCCC.
It is the student’s responsiblity to check for updates to this information, which is subject to change.
