Double Major in the Bachelor’s Degree

Students may earn a double major by completing core requirements for the degree sought and then all requirements for the second major, including any additional core courses required within that major. The same issue of the University Catalog must be used throughout. If one major has sufficient elective credits, students may meet major requirements of another department by using these electives. There is no requirement for additional degree credits, provided all requirements for both majors are completed when the degree is posted. Typically, if one degree is awarded for two or more majors, only one diploma is awarded but all majors will be indicated on the student’s transcript; however, students selecting two majors that culminate in two different degrees (e.g., B.A. and B.S.) will be awarded two different diplomas and fees apply.
