Undergraduate Degrees

The University offers three baccalaureate degrees:

• The Bachelor of Arts degree in Art, Art and Graphic Design, Communication, English, History, Liberal Studies, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Religious
  Studies, Sociology, and Theatre Arts;
• The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Art, Art and Graphic Design, and Musical Performance;
• The Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting, Biochemistry, Biology, Business Administration, Computer and Information Science, Human Services, and Kinesiology.

Specific Degree Requirements

Bachelor of Arts
A curriculum which may require a maximum of 60 units of coursework in or out of the major department beyond the Core Curriculum Requirements. A minimum of 24 upper-division units is required in the major.

Bachelor of Fine Arts
A rigorous curriculum designed to prepare talented students for professional careers in the arts. The BFA in
Musical Theatre leads to a professional degree in musical theatre. The BFA or its equivalent is generally a prerequisite to graduate professional studies (MFA). A total of 72-78 units of work in the major is required for the BFA. Students in the program are encouraged to enroll in selected summer courses to spread the program requirements more evenly over four years.

Bachelor of Science
A curriculum which may require a maximum of 75 units of coursework in or out of the major department beyond the Core Curriculum Requirements. A minimum of 33 units shall be required in the major or in directly related fields, and of these at least 24 units shall be upper-division work in the major department.

Degrees with Multiple Majors
While a student may be eligible for a degree with multiple majors, Notre Dame de Namur
University does not award degrees of more than one type (for example, a BA and a BS) simultaneously. Students completing requirements for majors in more than one degree type must declare a primary major that dictates which degree is awarded.

Professional Studies/Evening Program

The Professional Studies/Evening Programs at Notre Dame de Namur University are upper-division programs designed to enable career-oriented working adults to complete a
Bachelor's Degree in the evening. Majors in Computer Science and Psychology are offered in the regular 15-week fall and spring semesters. Majors in Business Administration, Human Services, and Liberal Studies are offered in six 7-week terms in the fall, spring, and summer.

Only students accepted into the Accelerated programs may enroll in 7-week Accelerated courses; however, Accelerated Program students may enroll concurrently in 15-week semester courses. Evening classes generally meet one night per week. Students should consult with their advisors regarding the availability and scheduling of Core Curriculum courses in the evening.

Undergraduate Degree Requirements

To be eligible for graduation with a bachelor‘s degree from Notre Dame de Namur University, a student must meet the following requirements, as defined in this section:

• Major Requirements
• Institutional Requirements
• Core Curriculum Requirements

The goals of this tripartite structure for bachelor's degree programs are: the Core Curriculum segment promotes connection to the University's mission while developing essential skills, attitudes, and breadth for full participation in our diverse society; the Major segment requires students to achieve depth in a specific area; and the Institutional Requirements segment provides further structure for the academic integrity of the degree and the opportunity for exposure to other areas of interest through elective courses.

Major (and Optional Minor) Requirements

Each student must complete the program for a defined academic major, as described later in this catalog, or the program for an interdisciplinary major as defined in this section. Students may optionally complete an academic minor or second major. As with majors, a minor must be a defined program, as described later in this catalog, or an interdisciplinary minor as defined in this section. General rules and restrictions for completion of majors and minors are cataloged in this section.

Major: Minimum Unit Requirement

An academic major must include a minimum of 24 discrete units of upper-division coursework in the major discipline.

Minor: Minimum Unit Requirement

An academic minor must include a minimum of 12 discrete units in the chosen area, of which 6 units must be upper division and taken in residency.

Majors and Minors: Discrete Unit Requirement

Units of coursework counted toward the minimum 24 units required for a major and the minimum 12 units required for a minor cannot be used to meet the minimum unit requirements for another major or minor (i.e., the units must be discrete). For example, a double major must consist of at least 48 discrete units, a major and minor of 36 discrete units, a major and two minors of 48 discrete units.

Interdisciplinary Majors

Students may design interdisciplinary majors under the guidance of an academic advisor and by agreement of the chairs of the departments concerned. The major will involve a program flexible enough to satisfy the individual needs of the student but structured enough to insure a practical group of related courses that includes at least 24 upper-division units and a concentration in one area. The following interdisciplinary majors are examples of possible programs:

• Humanities: A broad background in the humanities and a special competence in English, Modern Languages and Cultures, Philosophy, or Religious Studies;
• Languages and Literature: Training in linguistics, literary criticism, English and foreign languages and their literatures;
• Philosophy and Religious Studies: A selection of courses from these two areas to bring focus to the intersection of faith, reason, spirituality, and ethics;
• Software Engineering and Management: Courses from Computer Science and Business appropriate to entry-level technical management.

Interdisciplinary Minors

Students may design interdisciplinary minors under the guidance of an academic advisor and by agreement of the chairs of the departments concerned. The minor will involve a program flexible enough to satisfy the individual needs of the student but structured enough to insure a practical group of related courses that includes at least 12 units, of which six units must be upper-division and taken in residency. Possible program areas in which interdisciplinary minors might be developed include European Studies, Film Studies, Latin American Studies, Social Justice Studies, and Women Studies.

Institutional Requirements

Total Unit Requirement

A total of 124 semester units are required for the bachelor's degree. These must include a minimum of 46 units in upper-division courses; at least 24 of the upper-division units must be in the major.

A single course may be used to fulfill both a Core Curriculum Requirement and a major or minor requirement. While a single course may be used to satisfy multiple requirements, no course may be counted more than once toward the 124 semester unit requirement.

A maximum of 16 units in performance and activities courses, excluding courses required in the major, may be applied toward the total unit requirement, with a limit of five units per semester. A list of performance and activities courses can be found in the Undergraduate Policies and Procedures section.

Academic Residency Requirement

A student must complete at least 30 units at Notre Dame de Namur University in at least two semesters. The last 12 units toward the degree must be done consecutively at NDNU. Transfer students must complete a minimum of 12 upper-division units in the major at NDNU. (These may be included in the 30 residency units.) Only units earned after matriculation may be applied to residency.

Requirements for Second Bachelor's Degrees

Students admitted to a second bachelor's degree program must complete at least 30 units of course work toward the second bachelor's degree at Notre Dame de Namur University, taken in at least two semesters after admission. See Undergraduate Admission for admissions requirements. This NDNU course work must include a minimum of 12 upper-division units in the second major. In addition, each student must follow NDNU's Core Curriculum Requirements in effect at the time of (re)admission. These same requirements apply to students whose prior bachelor's degree was earned at NDNU. Such students must be readmitted to the University after their prior NDNU degree was awarded. The 30 units that they must complete in residence, as well as the minimum of 12 upper-division units in the second major, must be in terms subsequent to the term in which their prior NDNU degree was awarded.

Academic Standing Requirement

To be eligible to graduate a student must have been in clear academic standing during the last semester of study. The student also must have achieved at least a 2.0 cumulative GPA in coursework toward the degree and at least a 2.0 GPA in Major Requirements in any major included on the degree at the time that all other graduation requirements are satisfied.

U.S. History Requirement

Students who have not completed a United States history course with grade "C" (2.0) or higher for each term in an American high school or an American international school are required to pass one three unit course in United States History. NDNU does not accept a C- or lower. An official high school transcript is required. The U.S. History requirement can be satisfied at NDNU by taking and passing one of the following courses:

HST1020	United States History
HST2300	American History, 1607 – 1877
HST2310	American History, 1877 – Present

Community Engagement and Cultural Diversity Requirements:

Community Engagement (3 units)

All students complete this requirement by enrolling in community-based learning (CBL) courses, community engagement (CE) courses, or internships offered by Career Development and by individual departments.

Cultural Diversity (CDiv) (6 units)

All students are required to take six units in Cultural Diversity. An appreciation of cultural diversity is an important aspect of NDNU's social justice mission and CDiv courses are concerned with exploring cultural difference in a mindful effort to advance this aspect of our mission. Cultural diversity is integral to CDiv courses and cultural diversity content is presented throughout the course. Therefore, the number of CDiv units awarded for any course will equal the total number of units of that course (for example, any three unit CDiv course will be worth three CDiv units). Cultural Diversity courses may be used also to fulfill other Core Curriculum requirements (except Culture and Language) or requirements within the major. (Students in BS programs may not apply a Culture and Language course to both the Culture and Language requirement and the Cultural Diversity requirement).
