Natural Sciences
20 percent of your credits, or six courses, are required through the School of Science. Lally students are required to take three courses in Math, two in Natural Science, and one in Computer Science. These courses help to ensure our students excel in quantitative and computer skills that today’s employers are seeking.
Humanities
A minimum of 24 credits (six courses) through the School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences (HASS); two courses must be from Humanities (Examples - Art, Literature, Music, Writing, Philosophy, or History), and two must be from the Social Sciences (Examples - Anthropology, Psychology, Economics, or Sociology). We want our students to be reflective about their choices, creative and innovative in their problem solving, and informed of global/societal issues.
Other Required Electives
Lally undergraduates also have 24 other electives to complete. As a result, some students:
Lally students are encouraged to pursue a concentration, similar to a major, by taking an additional sequence of courses within the management curriculum.
> Take classes in any of the five undergraduate schools at our world-class university. Over 40 percent of your classes can be taken at other Rensselaer schools.
> Pursue minors in the Rensselaer School of Engineering; Science; the Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences; or Architecture.
Students also have the opportunity to obtain dual or double degrees; continue their studies with a combined degree option; pursue simultaneous B.S. and M.S. degrees; or complete the combined B.S./Juris Doctor (Law) degree.
