General Studies Degree Program

The Bachelor of General Studies Degree (BGS) reflects the commitment of Indiana University and the state of Indiana to meet the educational needs of adult citizens.  The BGS at IUPUC extends to students the opportunity to pursue a college education regardless of their work schedules, domestic responsibilities or location.

The General Studies Degree Program is specifically designed for students who want a degree that combines IU’s high academic standards with a great level of flexibility and convenience. The BGS allows students to customize their own degree programs. Students may select courses from a broad range of subjects to tailor their course work to personal interests, goals, or career needs. Earning a degree in general studies allows students to apply for and pursue advanced degrees in a variety of fields, increase earnings, advance in careers, build confidence, and become role models for their children

The core of each general studies degree is a broadly based education encompassing the arts and humanities; the social and behavioral sciences; and mathematics and natural sciences.  The curriculum expands students’ body of knowledge and awareness of major areas of human experience.
