Program Requirements

This concentration, with its flexibility and latitude, enables students to: 1) apply what they’ve learned in the majority of their free elective courses in their major; 2) add to that what they’ve learned about interdisciplinary through the LIBS courses in their major; 3) synthesize that learning in a culminating LIBS 475 capstone experience.

So if a student is interested in the applied aspects of culture and subculture, then this concentration is for you!
