The Bachelor of Professional Studies (BPS) program is designed to equip participating students with immediately applicable skills and competencies while preparing them to understand, serve, and lead their organizations. This degree-completion program provides graduates with both theoretical and practical educational experiences that are designed to enhance their current professional capabilities as well as prepare them for new career opportunities.

Current concentrations include:

  • Accounting
  • Computer Information Systems
  • Geographic Information Science
  • Interdisciplinary Studies
  • Leadership and Management
  • Network Security

The BPS program is designed for individuals possessing a minimum of 30 credits. To fulfill CGPS degree requirements, students must earn a minimum of 120 semester credits, 30 of which must be earned at UMW following admission.

Due to the nature of the BPS program and changing technology, transfer coursework that has been completed within ten years of BPS program matriculation can be counted as general education credit, core requirements, concentration requirements and/or elective credit. Transfer coursework that is older than ten years will count as general education and/or elective credit only.
