A Bachelor of General Studies or a Bachelor in General Studies (BGS) is a highly interdisciplinary undergraduate academic degree offered by higher education institutions that "allows students to combine and explore multiple subjects."[1]
The concept of general studies derives from the medieval European university concept of studium generale. A BGS program allows students to design a degree plan with advisors while meeting their academic institution's general requirements. Students can typically choose from concentrations in a variety of areas.
The University of Michigan is the only[failed verification] university in the U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges Ranking top 50 that offers a Bachelor in General Studies degree program.[1][2] Despite its name, the Columbia University School of General Studies does not confer Bachelor of General Studies degrees but Bachelor of Arts degrees instead.[3]
