General Science
Minor in General Science
The General Science minor is designed for those majoring in areas outside of the Science and Technology Department but who wish to have some general study of science. The General Science minor consists of 20 credits in science. Two of the five courses are required and the other three courses may be selected from restricted options.
The Evangel University Department of Science and Technology is dedicated to the spiritual, academic and social growth of every student. The department’s purpose is to provide an excellent scientific education that is thoroughly integrated with the University’s emphasis on the development of strong Christian character. Within this framework, students must contend with new scientific, social, ethical and technological challenges. Students learn to communicate technical concepts clearly and effectively and exhibit analytical thinking and problem-solving skills.
The General Science minor gives students who have an interest in science the opportunity to take selected science courses even though they choose to major in another subject area. It is an expansion of the liberal arts education concept. Course selection options give variety to meet the individual interests of the student. The study of general science may enhance the understanding and application of many other majors.
Each of Evangel's academic programs is made up of a set of core curriculum, program requirements and electives. The courses listed below are just a small sample of courses that might be taken as a part of this specific program.

NOTE: A minor is a secondary field of interest that is meant to complement your academic major. While your major is chosen for your intended career choice, your minor may be something you pursue for your personal interest or to augment your major.
