Concentrations Available
A BLS degree requires students select one of the concentrations and meet all the requirements of that chosen concentration. Concentrations the student may select from are as follows:
- Humanities
- Social Science
- Applied Arts
- Community Wellness
- Instructional Support

Students must earn at least 43 credit hours in the field of concentration unless otherwise noted, and at least 15 of those credits must be earned at the University. Courses used to satisfy the General Curriculum Distribution requirements may not be used to also satisfy requirements of any concentration.
Of the total credits required, at least 24 must be earned from 300-level courses or higher, and of the required concentration courses, at least 16 must be earned from 300-level courses or higher.
Elective credit hours may be from any discipline the student chooses unless otherwise specified. All course pre- and co-requisites must be met unless otherwise waived.
