Bachelor of Arts in Student Designed

at Shorelight Group - University of Dayton USA

Students have the opportunity to create their own program of study. If you have a specific project in mind or want to study a combination of writing and literature, you can work closely with an adviser to plan a track toward your UD degree.

Our major combines a biomedical science-focused curriculum, a local or international medical experience, and a self-designed plan of study to include a minor or other courses of interest that prepare our graduates for entry into professional schools.

Students receive a professional art degree and teacher licensure upon graduation. Licensure is transferable to other states and unlike other art education programs, UD students start working with young people right away.

Our master’s degree program prepares you for professional success. Many students go on to successfully complete a Ph.D., and others refine their skills for professional development and advancement. In the past few years, graduate students have presented at 30+ national, regional and state conferences.

Areas of concentration include:

• Literary & Cultural Studies
• Writing & Rhetoric
• Teaching English To Speakers Of Other Languages

As a member of the Discover Engineering program at the University of Dayton, you will explore the academic programs in the School of Engineering before finalizing your major. With the help of a semester-long seminar and the assistance of your Student Success adviser, you'll discover the area of engineering that's right for you while staying on track academically. The seminar covers the curriculum and careers of each engineering program (chemical, civil, computer, electrical and mechanical), as well as the multitude of complementary minors, concentrations and programs.

Once you decide on your engineering academic program, students admitted as Discover Engineering are guaranteed to move into any engineering program and students admitted as Discover Engineering Technology are guaranteed to move into any engineering technology program.  If you'd like to move between the engineering and engineering technology programs, you can coordinate with your Student Success adviser on the process to do so!

The issues facing us today are increasingly global in nature. The context in which we lead our professional and personal lives is steadily becoming more multicultural and global in scope, demanding new levels of international knowledge - knowledge beyond just geography, a few phrases of a foreign language, and a guide book.

Our graduates work to advance the common good through computing innovation and information security. Their potential impacts range from increasing computing efficiency and improving quality of life to informing policy legislation, deriving business intelligence solutions, improving health care and education, and combating cyber threats.

Our major combines a biomedical science-focused curriculum, a local or international medical experience, and a self-designed plan of study to include a minor or other courses of interest that prepare our graduates for entry into professional schools.

Students dive deep into rhetoric and composition, learning about language and the context in which it is written and read.
