Semester Plan

The nature of the Human Resource Development major excludes it from ACT 1014 eight-semester degree-completion program requirements. The HRDE degree is a 120 hour degree in accordance with ACT 747.

Presented below is a typical plan for completing this degree in four semesters; individual student plans may vary significantly.Ìý

If fewer credits than needed are earned through technical credits, completing additional appropriate coursework will require heavier course loads and/or additional semesters to graduate. TheÌý19 hours ofÌýtechnical requirements can be completed at any time during the four semester program. Students are not required to complete courses during the summer, but courses may be offered. Students may be able to finish the program sooner if they enroll in summer courses.
