Baccalaureate Degree General Education Requirements
A. First-Year Experience
Overview of Components:
- Career Planning: ODHE requirement - Career Services/varies by course
- Common Intellectual Experience: “PenguinThink” [2018-19: Difference]
- Campus Activities: Participate in three activities with at least one being outside of the specific college/varies by college; evidence of participation varies.
More information on each of these components can be found on the First-Year Experience webpage.
B. Core Competencies
Writing
To learn the skills of effective writing, students will:
- Take two courses:
- Gather evidence from the library, Internet, or other appropriate sources

Speaking
To become effective speakers, students will take CMST 1545 Communication Foundations.
Critical Thinking
The critical-thinking learning outcome will be met through each student's major's curriculum.
Mathematics
Students must take at least one approved course that teaches mathematical and statistical skills. A student may satisfy this requirement by passing an approved course or by passing a higher-level mathematics course.
C. Knowledge Domains: Arts and Humanities, Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, and Social and Personal Awareness
To become more well-rounded members of the community, students are required to take a total of nine courses from the four knowledge domains. The coursework gives students exposure to fields of study outside their majors. Students are required to take:
