Business Administration B.S. ~ General Freshman Pathway

Because CSUMB is outcomes-based, this chronological pathway lists each target outcome first either as  an MLO (Major Learning Outcome) or ULR/GLO (University Learning Requirements / Graduation Learning Outcomes). It then shows courses aligned with those outcomes along with credits and an indication of when they are offered. For more information on a course—including title, credits, description, and prerequisites—click its number. For more information on an outcome, click on its abbreviated name.

This pathway, intended as a reference, models graduation with 127 credits. It is unlikely that your actual pathway will look exactly like the model due to several factors:

  • Any required remedial courses, such as MATH 098 and WRT 095
  • Actual availability of courses during a given semester
  • Personal choices you make in your Individual Learning Plan—in consultation with your First Year Seminar professor, and lower-division and major advisors—including the decision to pursue more than the minimal learning requirements

You must earn nine upper-division General Education credits after you have reached upper-division status. Upper-division GE courses taken when you are a lower-division student do not count toward this requirement.
