Double Major and Double Degree

A double major may be earned when a student completes two full majors, generally within the 120 hours required for a single degree. The specific major requirements of each major must be fulfilled. The diploma will indicate both majors. If the two degree programs are administered by different academic units, the major requirements of both academic units, as well as the general education requirements, must be fulfilled, as specified by the department or academic unit responsible for the primary degree. The double major is only available in B.A./B.A. or B.S./B.S. combinations.

A double degree may be earned when a student completes a minimum of 150 hours, completing the general education and major requirements for each of two majors. Students who earn a double degree will receive two diplomas simultaneously. If the two degree programs are administered by different academic units, the general degree requirements and major requirements of both academic units must be completed.

The B.A./M.D. dual degree program has different requirements and is subject to separate regulations. See the School of Medicine section of this catalog.
