After the first two years, BSPS students select either the IPPH specialization curriculum or the MCMP specialization curriculum. Both of these select from the same list of General Education Elective courses, and all BSPS students are expected to earn 128 or more credits

While in this program students are expected to meet the School's academic standards.

Additionally, students in the BSPS Program are encouraged to earn a minor. Example minor programs including requirements as well as information about enrollment for a dual degree are available.
