There are no prescribed programs within humanities, be it online or face-to face. You may elect a BA or a minor. View the eight-semester plan for the BA and a "flow sheet" of requirements.
For the BA we require 36 units in the major, a four-term proficiency in a language other than English, a standard liberal studies and elective load and either a 12-unit focus or a minor (18 or above credits) to better tailor your academic career.
Logical minors include art history, humanities, english, history, music, philosophy, theater, and women's studies. Given the more streamlined course options available online, as well as the talents of your humanities faculty, it might make sense for online students to consider doing 1-2 interdisciplinary foci rather than a minor. Foci would be developed in consultation with your advisor and can be drawn from a number different areas. Some possible foci might include:
- Film
- Perceptions of nature
- Gender
- Diversity
- Latin American
- Writing across the curriculum
- Critical thinking across the curriculum
As always, consult with your advisors and professors before developing any individualized plan.
