H&SS Requirements
All students working toward a B.S. degree are required to take a selection of Humanities and Social Science courses that is referred to as the H&SS core. It consists of 24 credit hours or six courses distributed in such a way as to afford students a breadth of perspective across the various disciplines as well as a more in-depth experience in at least one area.
Distribution Requirements:
To ensure that students have breadth in their core courses, students must select at least two courses (8 credit hours) from humanities and two courses (8 credit hours) of social sciences. H&SS interdisciplinary courses (IHSS) may be substituted for courses in either category.
To ensure that students have some depth in their H&SS core, students must take at least two courses within a single area prefix (STSH and STSS can be counted as a single area), at least one of which is taken at an advanced level (above 1000). No course within the depth sequence may be taken as Pass/No Credit. No more than three 1000-level H&SS courses may be applied toward the H&SS core requirement, no more than 6 credits may be taken as Pass/No credit and at least one course (4 credits) must be at the 4000 level.
Note: For IT students ITEC-1220 Politics and Economics of IT (Social Science) and ITEC-2210 Intro to Human Computer Interaction (Humanities) are counted towards your H&SS requirements. No other ITEC core courses or concentration courses can be counted towards your H&SS core requirements.
