Example
Schedule of Courses
for the proposed undergraduate certificate
with B.S. majoring in Geography
The University of Georgia offers
A.B. and B.S. degrees in Geography. All students participating in the Atmospheric
Sciences Certificate program should choose the B.S. degree. While it should
be possible to complete a Geography B.S. degree and the proposed Atmospheric
Sciences Certificate in four years, it will require careful planning.
Students
should be able to complete a Geography B.S. degree more quickly than any
other major with the certificate program.

not specific to Geography.
