  19. BGSU has two unique GE/BGP requirements International Perspective Cultural Diversity in the United States

  20. International Perspective The BG Perspective general education program requires students to complete an International Perspective theme that facilitates student exploration of the significance of diverse international cultures within their own lives and promotes exploring the role of international issues and connections in our increasingly interconnected global society. Students are required to satisfactorily complete at least one approved course, from either the social and behavioral sciences or the humanities and the arts domains, that addresses an international perspective. An international experience, defined as an academic study abroad experience bearing three or more creditsor a documented international military deployment of at least 30 consecutive or 60 non-consecutive days, also will fulfill that International Perspective requirement. Fulfilling the International Perspective requirement through international military deployment is typically accomplished by providing the Registrar’s Office a copy of the DD214 Form.
