General Studies - Kent State University at Salem

General Studies from Kent State University at Salem is a Campus Bachelor Liberal Studies degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. The Bachelor of General Studies (BGS) degree is a College of Arts & Sciences non-major degree which provides maximum freedom for the student who wishes to take an interdisciplinary and creative approach to the design of an educational program while maintaining a focus on career or professional goals. The BGS is an individualized program in which the student, rather than a faculty department, undertakes the responsibility for the research and design of his or her own degree program (minimum of 30 future credit hours). Students choose a minimum of three academic departments in which to select courses to develop a rationale for the way in which these courses are supportive of their career goals. A student who has already completed the course or hour requirement for another baccalaureate degree may not be admitted to the BGS degree program unless given special permission by the Curriculum Committee of the College. Students who have already earned a baccalaureate degree are not eligible to pursue the BGS degree . The BGS degree program may not be combined with a regular major, but may be combined with a Premedicine or Predentistry major. A student considering the BGS degree program should arrange a conference with a BGS Program Advisor prior to application and submission of the BGS proposal.
