Meta-Majors

A meta-major is a collection of academic programs that have common or related content (s. 1008.02(3), F.S.).  All meta-majors require ENC1101C English Composition I as the gateway course in communications. However, the gateway course in mathematics varies by meta-major.  Meta-major academic pathways have been established to advise students of the gateway courses in mathematics that are aligned with specific academic and career goals.

Review the meta-major program table below to identify Pensacola State College programs that are associated with each meta-major and the appropriate mathematics gateway course(s).
