A
student who plans to pursue a bachelor's degree at Bowling
Green State University should choose one course with an
international perspective and one course that satisfies
the BG
Perspective cultural diversity in the US domain. These
courses can be taken from the social and behavioral sciences
or the humanities. The College of Arts and Sciences has
developed a list of cultural diversity courses that can
be used to satisfy the humanities and arts or social sciences
requirements of the associate degree.
Each
student must select a sufficient number of approved electives
to earn a minimum of 62 hours. A student planning to pursue
a bachelor's degree in the College of Arts and Sciences
should take a foreign language.
Students

of arts degrees without taking a substantially different
set of courses.
