Courses eligible to fulfill a General Education requirement are reflected on the appropriate GEP category course lists. These lists are are updated periodically as courses are added or dropped from a list. 

Each GEP requirement has its own rationale and objectives. Course action proposals for a GEP course must provide documentation to show how the course is designed to enable a student to achieve the particular GEP category objectives.

Please note the Basic Criteria for General Education Program (GEP) Courses:

• GEP courses should be generally available to all undergraduate students. Courses should be offered on a regular basis, and no more than 75% of the seats in any given section should be restricted. If all seats are restricted to a major(s), justification is required.
• GEP courses should have no more than one prerequisite. If there is more than one pre-requisite, justification is required.
• GEP courses should be offered on a regular basis.
• GEP courses should also be a permanent offering (not a special topics or experimental course). Note: Because course outcomes must be aligned with GE objectives, courses designed to offer variable topics are not appropriate (courses in the 90-series such as special topics, seminars, independent study, etc.).
