- BMU students take one Human Creative Perspectives course and one Historical Perspectives course (first course at the 100 level; second course at the 200-level). They do not need to take a Philosophical Perspectives course.
- The Mathematics and Natural Science requirement is 6-7 credits: one Mathematics course, and one Natural Science with Lab course.
