Bachelor of General Studies

Rowan University is proud to offer students another option to complete a Bachelor's degree. The Bachelor of General Studies (BGS) degree completion program may be the best route to a degree for some students. BGS students:

• Achieve a well-rounded and rigorous liberal arts education in a degree program that is tailored to individual needs.
• Concentrate on a disciplinary or interdisciplinary academic focus area more flexible than a traditional major.
• Collaborate with the program coordinator and advisor to ensure achievement of program and individual goals.
• Actively prepare for a future career as part of the degree requirements.

Although we have highlighted four focus areas within our curriculum, there are a multitude of options. We encourage you to connect with us today!
