ELECTIVE CREDITS: THE THIRD CURRICULAR COMPONENT
The third component of the Wilkes Curriculum, after the General Education Requirements and the Major, is composed of Elective Courses. In addition to the credits earned through general education and major courses, all students must earn a minimum of 120 credits in order to graduate. Students choose elective courses for a variety of reasons: to complete a minor, double major or to pursue an interest, or to meet requirements for admission to graduate or professional schools or to hone particular skills. Internships and Study Abroad are wonderful opportunities that offer elective credits if the credits do not apply to the major.
