The International and Multicultural requirement is a minimum of 6 semester-credits. Students satisfy the requirement by completing a 3-credit course approved as multicultural and a 3- credit course approved as international. A single course may not simultaneously meet both the multicultural and international requirements.
Both the international and multicultural courses may simultaneously satisfy other General Education requirements. The 6 semester-credits may then overlap with rather than add to the total General Education credit requirements.
International Requirement
International courses examine existing peoples and societies outside of the United States based upon one or more attributes which may include, but are not limited to: current language, institutions, and culture. International courses focus on solid intellectual inquiry regarding international themes, factors, or information regarding a presently existing country (or countries) outside the United States. These courses may be discipline specific.
