Academic Programs & Degrees

In Milligan's educational model, the student is expected to acquire a general education by following a rationally determined pattern of course requirements comprised of required and optional courses in the various major disciplines. Every undergraduate degree-seeking student must also fulfill the requirements of a faculty-approved major. Except in the case of a few majors, students are not required to pursue a minor, but many are available if they so choose.

Milligan College grants three baccalaureate degrees and three master's degrees: Bachelor of Arts (B.A.), Bachelor of Science (B.S.), Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.S.N.), Master of Business Administration (MBA), Master of Education (M.Ed.), and Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (M.S.O.T.). For complete details about our degrees, academic programs, and requirements, view our Catalog.
