Courses used to meet the above requirement carry the following prefixes:

AH

Courses that carry the prefix DM (Digital Media) may NOT be used to fulfill the requirement. However, they may be taken as technical electives. Ask your advisor for more information.

All humanities and social science courses used to fulfill the graduation requirement are organized according to principles of
breadth and depth into three categories:

1. Level I Basic Courses required of all students
2. Level II Elective Courses
3. Level III Elective Courses

To fulfill the general education requirement, students must complete the following:

Three basic courses (EN 1014 or EN 1034, and EN 1204 and HI 2104, taken in this order)
Two Level II Elective Courses
One Level III Elective Course cognate with at least one Level II Course (i.e., which has a Level II Elective Course as a prerequisite)
