Request for Review on TESU BSBA Plan

[dfrecore]

Since the previous update, I have completed the following:
- ALEKS Intermediate Algebra to be used in General Education Electives as MAT-115
- ALEKS PreCalculus to be used in General Education Electives as MAT-129
- ALEKS College Algebra to be used in Intellectucal and Practical Skills as MAT-121
- The Institute's Ethics and the CPCU Code of Professional Conduct to be used in Civic & Global Learning as PHI-384
- SOPHIA's Building Effective Teams to be used in the General Management Area of Studies as HRM-299 to offset the weird credit count from transferring in from my old college

I have not confirmed any of the above with TESU as it seems to be generally accepted as stated, but for peace of mind if someone may be able to confirm these...

In addition, due to the gap in the CIS AOS, I was wondering if anyone had experience in applying 'Management Information Systems' for both the GM and CIS AOS? According to the TESU Undergrad Program Policies, up to 9 courses can be applied in two AOSes, but I also understand GM to be a bit on the fuzzy side. If they would accept it, it would fulfil the entirety of the CIS AOS requirements and knock off 3 credits of an upper level course in the GM AOS requirements!

Yes, those courses should work exactly where you want them.

As for the dual BSBA in GM/CIS, my understanding is that you have to do each concentration separately, with no overlap. When they say 9cr of overlap in 2 different degrees, they are referring to something like Psychology and Sociology (just an example). Each of those has 39/33cr in the Area of Study (the major). When looking at the BSBA, you're already overlapping courses in the core (the major), you can't then also overlap courses in the AOS (concentration). You need 18cr in the GM area, and 18cr in the CIS area.

Most of the problem here comes from TESU's wording - they are so inconsistent in how they word things, it's ridiculous. They should make the BSBA consistent with the other degrees, and call the entire major the AOS, and the lower section the Concentration, so that it's not confusing.

You can double-check that if you want, as the GM/anything else being able to have a dual degree is completely new. You used to not be able to get that, you could do 2 AOS's like CIS and Accounting, which would have zero courses that would overlap anyway. But it's my understanding that you cannot overlap the BSBA Concentrations at all.
