NOTES:
Program Major: the program major refers to a particular body of knowledge appearing with the degree to make up the degree title on a student's transcript or a commencement program. The program major prescribes a set of courses and other requirements that a student must complete to be conferred a degree in this field.
Area of Specialization: the area of specialization includes all options, areas of emphasis, concentrations, occupational orientations, or other similar designation of an area of study within a major or broader field of knowledge which may appear in the campus catalog, a student's transcript, or other campus college or departmental documents and is located in the same administrative unit as the major. To appear on the transcript or in the catalog, the specialization must have official approval at the appropriate level of organization.
