Hello all, I have been a longtime reader of the forum here on DegreeInfo, but this it my first post. I am currently plugging away on the BSBA-GM at TESC and I was a bit surprised to discover that TESC has added a new requirement section to the degree plan, "RESPONSIBILITY." Now my question is where can I find the required courses for this section, online and/or ACE Credit approved? The required courses are: - Responsible Ethical Leadership - Diversity or Global Literacy Thank you in advance and thank you for welcoming me to the community. R
DSST has upper division "Ethics in Business" and "Ethics in America" exams. Test Preparation | DSST | Get College Credit TESC has a course "Cultural Diversity in the US (SOC-322)" Thomas Edison State College: Course Offerings It is always best to check with TESC as to the acceptability of any course.
You're probably going to want to save Business Ethics and Society for the Business and Society/International Management requirement. That leaves you with the Ethics in America DSST. It is not upper level at TESC, but that doesn't matter. Straighterline also has Business Ethics. For Diversity/Global Literacy (verify all of these), there is DSST Human/Cultural Geography, DSST General Anthropology, CLEP Sociology (I believe this has already been verified), DSST An Introduction to the Middle East, Uexcel (formerly ECE) Cultural Diversity (this should be a guarantee), DSST Intro to World Religions (this should be a guarantee), and some of the history tests by DSST might work. A member of another forum verified either Human/Cultural Geography or Anthropology; I can't remember which one. The Straighterline (ACE-approved) equivalents of the listed tests are other options. TESC provides a list of which courses will fulfill the requirements. http://www.tesc.edu/academics/courses/Gen-Ed-Courses.cfm
WOW, thank you both for the extremely thoughtful, complete, and informative responses. Both of your posts really provided some great starting points for me. I am working on this BSBA degree on the side as I am working at a MBA at another institution. I was a bit surprised how conservative TESC is regarding the use of graduate level courses towards the requirements of an undergrad degree. Thank you both again =D Cheers, R
