This 51 credit hour program includes 31.5 hrs. of required Core courses and 19.5 hrs. of electives. Finance, Marketing, Entrepreneurship and Supply Chain Management majors must take at least 10.5 of these elective hrs. in their major. Most electives are taught as in-classroom courses but a few are ADC (Alternative Delivery Channel) courses, which are taught online and do not require trips to the campus. The elective hrs. shown above, by module, represent the suggested program of study. Electives cannot be taken in Modules 1A or 1B, but afterwards, students may take electives as long as the prerequisites have been satisfied. The only constraints are that students cannot take more than 7.5 hrs. in any semester prior to Module 2B (unless the faculty program chair has granted permission in writing). In addition, the program must be completed within 5 academic years from the starting date.
1J501 meets during the 1st half of the semester and as a one week intensive seminar; G502 meets during the 2nd half of the semester.
2G511 meets during the first half the semester and G512 meets during the 2nd half the semester.
3January admits may wish to take fewer elective hrs. in Modules 2S since they will have a third summer to take electives, prior to graduating in the fall semester. Also, students may not use the GCS placement service until all of Module 2 (A, B, and S) has been completed. Spring semester admits may finish in Module 3S; in which case, Module 3B would not required, but most take Module 3S off and finish in the fall, Module 3B.
