Ferris State University is dedicated to the ideal of blending career-oriented professional
and technical education with a solid base of general education. Our general education
program provides students with the academic skills, analytic ability, and general
knowledge necessary to flexibly meet the challenges of their personal, civic, and
professional lives.
General education at Ferris accomplishes the following:
- It enhances and enriches the skills essential to students' success in every field
and most areas of their lives.
- It provides students with the knowledge that will allow them to adapt to change, advance
in their careers, and act as informed citizens.
- It assists students in gaining a better understanding of themselves. It also widens
the horizons of their experience by offering them a better understanding and appreciation
of some of the best of human achievement.
***Responsibility for meeting all general education requirements rests with the student.
Your faculty advisor is available to assist you.
