Majors and their Distribution Area Assignments

UNLV’s General Education Curriculum has three distribution content area  requirements: (1) Humanities and Fine Arts, (2) Life and Physical Sciences and Analytical Thinking, and (3) Social Sciences. A student’s coursework in their major automatically satisfies one of the three General Education Distribution Content requirements. Students are required to fulfill the other TWO General Education Distribution content requirements that are OUTSIDE their major’s distribution content area.
