Master of Arts, Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Music, Master of Science, Master

department. A major is that part of a degree program which consists of a specific
group of courses in a particular discipline(s) or field(s). The name of the major
is usually consistent with the degree subject area. A major usually consists of 25
percent or more of total hours required in an undergraduate curriculum. Establishment
of a major requires prior approval by the Board of Regents. In some cases, students
can choose an area of concentration, which is an alternative track of courses within
a major or option, accounting for at least 30 percent of the major requirements.
The university offers one two-year degree: Associate of Applied Sciences
