Double Majors/Dual Degrees

Double Major

A student who fulfills the specified requirements for two different majors authorized under a single degree has completed a double major and will receive a single diploma. Both majors appear on the diploma.

Dual Degree

In order to earn a dual degree, students must meet all the requirements for each degree, and must have a minimum of 30 hours of additional course work beyond the minimum required for the first degree.  For more information contact the advising center of each program being considered.

If two bachelor’s degrees are conferred simultaneously, the student must complete a minimum of 30 hours beyond the requirements of the single degree. Degree audits must be filed in the office of both college advising centers. Graduation will occur when the student has completed requirements for both degrees. Students completing dual bachelor’s degrees receive two diplomas.
