  Note: A typical SUE semester is split between two technology/science courses and two humanities/social sciences courses. The flexibility of a SUE major allows many variations, some with heavier technology/science concentrations than others.  Each SUE student customizes his or her curriculum in consultation with the program’s academic adviser.
