AS - General Studies
The Associate of Science degree with a major in General Studies consists of 60 credits of coursework, which includes both general education requirements and a concentration in one academic area. The program design requires the student to complete at least 15 of the 60 hours with Indiana Wesleyan University. Therefore, transfer of credits is an option for this degree if the credits are earned at other regionally accredited institutions or those accredited by the Association for Biblical Higher Education and a grade of "C" or higher was earned.
The General Studies major may not be taken as an additional major or degree. This major is not available for students who are in or have completed other IWU programs.
The purpose for the Associate Degree with a major in General Studies encompasses the intention for students to:
- Communicate a Christian worldview as it relates to the liberal arts in education.
- Be prepared to achieve personal academic enrichment as lifelong learners who are effective world changers in daily behavior and pursuits.
