General Education Requirements:
Students must successfully complete the general requirements of the university, the school or college in which they are enrolled, and the specific requirements of their area of specialization. Described below are the general education requirements for all degrees. Students may consult their degree audit (DARS) report for recommended general education courses in their major.
At the University of Missouri-St. Louis, General Education affords both freshmen and transfer students the opportunity to develop and apply intellectual tools and to acquire a breadth of knowledge necessary in our challenging, technological, and diverse world. This curriculum also challenges students to investigate various disciplines as potential majors, and it prepares them for success in major fields of study. The program complies fully with the Missouri Coordinating Board of Higher Education Guidelines on Transfer and Articulation (June 2000).
General Education Requirements
Application of Policy to Freshmen
All students in Missouri public universities must complete the requirements of a General Education Plan totaling 42 credit hours in order to earn a baccalaureate degree.
Application of Policy to Transfer Students
Transfer policies describe which courses may apply to UMSL’s General Education requirements. In general, students who transfer to UMSL with an Associate of Arts (AA) degree from an accredited Missouri institution are considered to have completed all general education requirements. Additionally, UMSL has a Junior-Level Writing requirement and Mathematics Proficiency (explained below) beyond the general education requriement. Transfer students without an AA degree from Missouri may transfer a CBHE-approved 42-hour block of General Education courses, in accordance with the CBHE Transfer and Articulation agreement. However, those students transferring with fewer than 42 hours or from a non-participating institution will have their transcripts evaluated on a course-by-course basis.
Credit associated with military science and developmental/remedial coursework are not considered transferable to UMSL’s General Education requirements.
Application of Policy to Students Who Started Prior to Fall 2002
Students who earned 24 or more semester hours of credit* at any accredited post-secondary institutions(s) before the start of the fall 2002 semester may meet the general education requirements stipulated in the UMSL 2001-2002 Bulletin or elect to complete the current General Education Plan described below.
*Only credit that is transferable to UMSL is applicable

KNOWLEDGE GOALS:

Students may take only those courses listed below for the 42-hour General Education block. Many courses satisfy more than one goal, are designated as such, and may be counted for all of the goals listed for each specific course. Select courses that meet only a skill goal(s) without a knowledge goals have been marked with an asterisk, and it should be noted that those courses concentrate on the designated skill comprehensively.
Once students have met the required number of courses or hours under each goal, they have the opportunity to take any of the certified General Education courses listed under abt goal to achieve the 42-hours. The university encourages students to select General Education courses to meet their individual needs and interests. Students may not take any upper-level courses or any lower-level courses that do not appear on the list of certified General Education courses to complete the 42-hour block.
General Education at the University of Missouri-St. Louis offers students an exciting and challenging curriculum that develops the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in today’s changing world. The following information outlines each of the six goals and the courses that meet the competencies students must achieve to accomplish the designated skills and knowledge goals.

GOAL # 5 HUMANITIES AND FINE ARTS KNOWLEDGE
The Humanities and Fine Arts Knowledge Goal develops the students’ understanding of the ways in which humans have addressed their condition through imaginative work in the humanities and fine arts; to deepen their understanding of how that imaginative process is informed and limited by social, cultural, linguistic, and historical circumstances; and to appreciate the world of the creative imagination as a form of knowledge (CBHE General Education, June 2000).
Students must complete a minimum of nine credit hours from the Humanities and Fine Arts Knowledge area taken from the following list:

GOAL # 6 MATHEMATICS AND LIFE/NATURAL SCIENCES KNOWLEDGE
The Mathematics and Life/Natural Sciences Knowledge Goal develops students’ abilities in the areas of mathematics and sciences. In mathematics, the goal develops the students’ understanding of fundamental mathematical concepts and their applications. Students should develop a level of quantitative literacy that would enable them to make decisions and solve problems and which could serve as a basis for continued learning. To meet this goal, students must have one mathematics course that has the same prerequisite(s) and level of rigor as college algebra. In the life and natural sciences, this goal develops the students’ understanding of the principles and laboratory procedures of life and physical sciences and to cultivate their abilities to apply the empirical methods of scientific inquiry. Students should understand how scientific discovery changes theoretical views of the world, informs our imaginations, and shapes human history. Students should also understand that science is shaped by historical and social contexts (CBHE General Education, June 2000). Students must complete a minimum or twelve credit hours in the Mathematics and Life/Natural Sciences Knowledge area.
Note: All students are required to earn a C- or better in a college-credit mathematics course (MATH 1020 or higher meets this requirement at UMSL), or achieve a score of 26 or higher on the Missouri Math Placement Test. Students should check the current schedule of courses for more details regarding math proficiency and placement.

Credit Hours
All candidates for baccalaureate degrees must complete a minimum of 120 semester hours. At least 45 of these hours must be courses numbered 2000 or above (or comparable courses transferred). Students must maintain a minimum 2.0 grade point average overall, as well as in their area of specialization. Students seeking two degrees must meet all degree and residency requirements of each degree.
Other Requirements
Mathematical Skills
Proficiency in the basic mathematical skills area should be satisfied before the student completes 24 hours of course work. Proficiency can be obtained in either of the following ways.
Completing, with a grade of C- or better, a college degree credit mathematics course. Scoring 26 or higher on the Missouri Math Placement Test (MMPT). The MMPT covers mathematics through the college algebra level.
*The first two college credit mathematics courses that the university offers which satisfy mathematics proficiency are MATH 1020: Contemporary Mathematics and MATH 1030: College Algebra. MATH 1020 is designed as a terminal mathematics course for students who do not plan to take calculus. MATH 1030 is required for all students who want to go on to calculus. The prerequisite for enrolling in MATH 1020 or MATH 1030 is a satisfactory score on the math placement test. This test must be taken not earlier than six months before enrolling in the course.
Study guides for the UMSL Math Placement Test and the MMPT (as well as the UMSL Trigonometry Test, which is not needed for minimum math proficiency) are available on the university’s home page, under math placement information/math practice test, as well as at the circulation desk of the Thomas Jefferson Library (file number 991). Students will need to make their own copies. Math placement test dates are published in the Schedule of Courses and on the math placement website.
Advanced Expository Writing
Effective fall semester 1985, students must also complete ENGL 3100, Advanced Expository Writing, or its equivalent, with a grade of C- or above.
American History and Government
Students must satisfactorily complete a course or courses in American history or government taken at UMSL or at other colleges or universities in Missouri. Transfer students should check with the dean's office of their division to find out if they have fulfilled this requirement.
The requirement may be satisfied by one of the following courses:

Courses that satisfy this requirement involve substantial material independent of the cultures' interactions with European cultures. If a course focuses on one facet of a culture, it must treat the topic within the context of the culture as a whole.
