Meta-majors

A meta-major is a collection of academic programs that have common or related content (s. 1008.02(3), F.S.).  Meta-major academic pathways have been established to advise students of the correct gateway course in Mathematics that is aligned with the academic and career goals if the student is unsure of the specific academic program they want to complete.

All meta-majors require ENC1101C English Composition I as the gateway course in communications, but the gateway course in mathematics varies by meta-major.  Look at the meta-major program table below to identify Pensacola State College programs that are associated with each meta-major and the correct mathematics gateway course(s).
