Emphasis Areas
After a student is officially admitted to the BLA degree program, she or he must decide upon an emphasis within the Liberal Arts Major: Interdisciplinary Studies, a Designated Emphasis in Communication or Language Arts, or an Independent Design.
All of the options in the Liberal Arts Emphasis (42 Credits) have the same basic rquirements:
• At least 24 credits must be completed at the upper-division level.
• A mininum of 18 credits completed through UAS.
• A Capstone course or experience.
Courses used for General Education Requirement credit cannot be used to fulfill Liberal Arts Emphasis credits. In the case of any overlap (such as a GER course also being a required course for your major), other disciplinary courses of equal credits may be substituted.
