General Sciences – Brewing Science Concentration (B.S.)
The General Sciences major requires successful completion of 42 semester hours in the sciences (see Table 1 below) and an internship approved by the student’s major advisor.
Students majoring in General Sciences may elect up to one concentration in a designated subfield approved by the science faculty. The number of individual “contract” courses may vary depending on the concentration (see Tables 2-5 below for examples) however concentrations should have at least four contract course requirements. Courses designated as contract courses specific to concentrations for the General Science major are approved by the instructor and the Dean of Humanities and Sciences. Examples of concentrations within the General Sciences Major include: Agricultural Science, Brewing Science, Environmental Science/Natural Resources, General Laboratory Technician, Biomedical Science, additional general science concentrations may be made available to students depending on the availability of faculty expertise and qualifications.
