Bachelor of General Studies

The Bachelor of General Studies program provides students with an avenue to an interdisciplinary bachelor's degree and a degree completion option for students who have substantial credit hours without attaining a degree or prefer a broad selection of courses. Students are able to mix and match a series of certificates or minors offered at Georgia Southwestern allowing for a variety of options. The General Studies program allows students more flexibility to engage in disciplines of interest across campus with many to most certificate courses offered completely online.

This program consists of 60 hours in the core curriculum conforming to USG and GSW requirements plus the completion of three areas of concentration. Each area of concentration may be satisfied by completing the requirements for a minor or certificate. The Bachelor of General studies also includes a capstone course in interdisciplinary studies.

Office of the Dean

I originally chose my major because it’s so versatile, and I honestly just couldn't decide on one area of focus.
