General Education Requirements
The University's General Education requirement represents a conviction
on the part of the faculty that all students need to reason logically, communicate
effectively, and relate to the world around them. While courses completed
in a field of study develop specific knowledge and skills in a chosen profession,
general education courses not only enhance awareness of the world and the
people in it, but also foster an appreciation of the arts and humanities
and provide a basic under-standing of mathematical and scientific principles.
General education courses are not hurdles to be overcome; rather, they are
the means by which students learn to think, describe, interpret, and analyze
the world. Their primary aim is to educate, rather than train, and to instill
a desire for life-long learning. Specifically, these courses are designed
to produce students who have developed:
- an effective command of written and spoken English;
- an informed appreciation of the roles of the arts and the humanities;
- a familiarity with the nature and function of the social sciences;
- an appreciation of the methods of critical inquiry;
- an ability to deal with moral and ethical issues;
- a rational basis for selecting a vocation;
- an understanding of other cultures and other times; and
- a comprehension of how knowledge is acquired and applied.
To fulfill these requirements, students must complete 39 hours of course
work in six major areas:
- English composition (six hours)
- Analytical reasoning (six hours)
- Arts (three hours)
- Humanities (nine hours)
- Natural sciences (nine hours)
- Social sciences (six hours)
REGULATIONS
- Students must complete the 39-hour general education requirement prior
to graduating from LSU. It is recommended that students complete
the requirement during their first four semesters at the University.
- Only those courses on the approved list below, and their honors
equivalents, may be used to satisfy the general education requirement.
- No more than six hours of credit taken through correspondence study
may be applied to a student's general education requirement.
- An entering student may receive three or six hours of credit in
English composition on the basis of ACT scores and/or performance
on approved placement tests.
- An entering student may receive credit for one or more of the required
mathematics courses on the basis of placement test scores.
- Advanced placement and advanced standing credit may be used
to satisfy the general education requirement.
- General education courses will be graded on the “A,”
“B,” “C,” “D,” “F” system.
No courses taken on a pass/fail basis will count toward the general education
requirement.
- In addition, each student must demonstrate computer literacy
in ways deemed appropriate by the faculty of the senior college in which
the student is enrolled.
- Appeals for an exception to the general education requirements.
An appeal should be made and a decision rendered prior to registering
for a course intended to be a substitute for one on the approved listing,
with the exception of transfer courses. Scheduling difficulties or allegations
of poor advising typically do not constitute a reasonable basis for an
appeal. A request for an exception to the general education requirement
must be submitted to the dean of the student's college. The student's
request and the dean's evaluation of that request must be submitted to
the Office of Academic Affairs. A final decision will be made after consideration
by the Faculty Senate Committee on General Education.
TRANSFER COURSE APPROVAL
Deans are to determine the applicability of transfer courses to a component
of LSU's general education requirements.
If the course is deemed to be applicable, and there is no equivalent LSU
course, deans are asked to enter a course substitution on the Student Records
and Registration database, indicating that the course is accepted for general
education credit. Documentation concerning this decision should be kept
on file in the college.
If it is determined that a course is equivalent to an LSU course, colleges
should notify the Office of Undergraduate Admissions so the Admissions Transfer
Table can be updated.
If the college does not approve a transfer course for general education
credit, the student may petition the Office of Academic Affairs for a decision.
REGENTS' STATEWIDE ARTICULATION
LSU participates in the Board of Regents’ Statewide Articulation
Consortium. Students who plan to transfer to another Louisiana public institution
should consult the Office of Undergraduate Admissions for information about
the course transfer agreement.
