This 4-year academic plan is for freshmen entering Queens College in Fall 2022.
Our 4-year academic plans are illustrative examples of integrated degree requirements
and course sequencing for each of the College’s programs of study which are designed to
ensure degree completion in a timely manner. Students are advised to meet with
professional and faculty advisors to tailor their degree maps to their individual interests
(academic and career goals), as well as other considerations including course offerings
and the incorporation of winter and summer sessions. Course pre-requisite/s and co-
requisite/s are strictly enforced, as are entrance and maintenance criteria (if applicable)
for the successful completion of the degree.

*General Electives: Students may complete general electives by taking courses in (most) department/s or programs they choose; however, depending on the
course/program, students may need department permission and/or prerequisite course/s. Electives may be used to supplement the chosen major (an English
major may want to take a course in French or Italian literature) or to fulfill interest in a different area (a Music major may be interested in the physics of sound).
Students are encouraged to use available electives to complete a dual major, minor, pre-requisites for graduate or professional school, or complete and
internship, experiential learning and/or study abroad. Students are encouraged to use their available general electives wisely and focus on coursework that will
assist them personally, academically and professionally.
