University of Diploma in General Studies

About

The General Studies Diploma program at KPU is an exit credential designed as a more flexible and personalized alternative to the Associate or Bachelor degrees. Students may select from any courses for which the prerequisites can be met, and can construct their academic path with complete freedom to explore a specific theme or a wide variety of unrelated courses. General Studies allows you to build a highly personalized education plan. Through an Associate of Arts degree, a Diploma, or a Bachelor of Arts degree, General Studies students will seek opportunities that match their interests and create a unique academic path that suits their goals. General Studies is the most flexible area of study at KPU, as it allows students to take courses from a variety of disciplines. Working with an Arts Degree Advisor, you can create a personal program of study that helps you reach specific career and personal goals, intentionally developing a broad interdisciplinary liberal arts education. Completing this degree will normally involve a selection of courses from a number of departments that form around a unifying theme. Are you considering a teacher education? A Bachelor of Arts in General Studies is an excellent entry into the professional development or professional linking programs for elementary school teachers.
