Education general is a two-year curriculum available to students
in the College of Education who have completed less than 60 semester
hours of credit. It has been designed to accommodate students who are
uncertain about the specific degree programs they wish to enter in the
College of Education and students who have not completed the 60 hours
required to qualify for admission to curricula in the college for
which junior standing is an admission requirement, e.g., secondary
education, vocational/technical education, or special
education. Students in education general are required to pursue a
program of study that includes the course requirements common to all
undergraduate programs in the College of Education and the
requirements for continuation established by the University and the
College of Education. In order to obtain a bachelor's degree, a
student must transfer out of education general prior to or during the
term in which the student will complete his or her 48th semester
hour.
