ACADEMIC MAJORS AND MINORS (06-07)
Martin Methodist College is committed to an academic program which supports the full range of a traditional liberal arts education. This involves the development of new academic majors to satisfy increased enrollment and a changing student market. In recognition of this need, the College has increased the number of academic majors from 4 to 17 in the past five years.
To assist in retaining students, the academic programs must meet these needs including the ability to change majors several times during their career. A wide range of options must be available to them as well. The Martin 2010 plan calls for a continued gradual increase in the number of majors to reach a total of about 25.
MARTIN METHODIST COLLEGE OFFERS BOTH FOUR-YEAR AND TWO-YEAR DEGREE PROGRAMS
BACHELOR OF ARTS AND BACHELOR OF SCIENCE - FOUR YEAR DEGREES
The Bachelor of Arts degree is offered in English and may be selected in almost any major by students who wish to meet the foreign language requirements necessary for the B.A. degree.
The Bachelor of Science degree is offered in all disciplines except English and requires 6-8 hours of additional coursework in mathematics, natural sciences, or social sciences in lieu of a foreign language requirement.
Secondary teacher certification is available in Biology, Business, History, and English. K-12 teacher certification is available in Physical Education.
ASSOCIATE OF ARTS - TWO YEAR DEGREE
The Associate of Arts degree is designed to provide students the first two years of a four-year degree program. Students in the associate’s degree program continue their education toward the baccalaureate degree at Martin Methodist College or transfer to other senior institutions in a variety of different majors. Faculty and staff work closely with students to ensure smooth and accurate transfer of credits.
