BIS Courses

This is a online course required for new students who have been admitted to the online Bachelor of Integrated Studies (BIS) degree completion program. Special emphasis is given to developing a portfolio to fulfill admission and advising requirements. This portfolio, if maintained, also provides a basis for the capstone experience. Students earn one undergraduate credit hour.

As a directed study course, the capstone course requirement is a tangible project, often work or community related. As the culminating experience in the BIS curriculum, it is taken during a student's last semester or two in the program; it demonstrates the synthesis of academic contact with personal and professional goals. Students can earn up to 12 undergraduate credit hours over two semesters.
