4 General Education semester credit hours are required. The CSCI 101 course which is part of the required nuclear technical courses, also counts towards this requirement. Therefore, you are required to take one additional course from one of the following areas:

Arts and Humanities or Social and Behavioral Sciences
    HIST 243 - Historical Investigations (3 hours)
    PSYC 111 - Introduction to Psychology (3 hours)
    SOC 110 - Introduction to Sociology (3 hours)
    CJ 201 - Introduction to Criminal Justice (3 hours)

Note: General Education courses shown are those offered online through Bismarck State College. Other courses that are not online may also meet the requirements for this degree. If you have already taken general education courses at other institutions, some of those credits may satisfy these requirements. If you want to know whether courses you have taken elsewhere qualify, e-mail Amanda Dockter. If you plan to take a general education course from another institution and transfer the credits to Bismarck State College, you must receive written permission ahead of time from the Registrar's office at BSC.
