    11.- Upper-Division Courses

    A minimum of 45 semester hours of upper-division course work is required. The various majors require 19 to 32 semester hours of upper-division course work. In addition, the minor requires a minimum of six upper-division semester hours (Secondary Education requires 21 semester hours), and an additional six hours are required by the general college requirements. Thus zero to five free elective upper-division courses are required. Upper-division courses are not always offered each semester and summer. Students are cautioned to plan ahead in terms of when these courses are generally offered and what prerequisites are needed. Due to the blocking of upper-division education courses, this is particularly important for students seeking secondary teacher certification.
