The Master of Science in Geology is designed to provide strong preparation in geological sciences, focused directly on geological study and research. The program is designed so that it can potentially be completed in two years of full-time work. This program is intended for students who wish to pursue graduate-level work as a prelude for doctoral studies, or as professional preparation for careers in geological fields.

The culminating experience in the M.S. in Geology is a research thesis and defense of the thesis. Students will be encouraged to publish their work in a peer-reviewed journal.

The B.A. in Geology, General Geology Concentration is recommended for students planning a career in public service and education (e.g. government agencies, park rangers and K-12 science teaching), non-profit or non-governmental environmental organizations, or pre-environmental law. This Concentration has maximum elective flexibility to produce an experience tailored to the needs of the student.

The B.A. in Geology, Field and Applied Geology Concentration is recommended for students planning to become professional geologists employed by environmental and geo-technical firms, governmental agencies, oil and mining companies, and for those students planning to pursue a graduate degree in geology. Emphasizing field and applied geology courses, and experiential learning, this program is designed to permit students to meet existing requirements for Professional Licensing.

The B.A. in Spanish coursework includes the following areas: Culture, Linguistics, Peninsular Literature, and Spanish American Literature, some with interdisciplinary approaches.

The Bachelor's of Art degree program in chemistry is designed for the student who plans a career in chemistry or the related sciences upon graduation, continuation to graduate school in the chemical sciences, or professional health sciences such as medicine or pharmacy, but is interested in studying other subjects to augment a basic chemistry curriculum, perhaps with a minor or a double major in another field, for example.  The program provides foundational course work in the sub-disciplinary areas of organic, inorganic, physical, analytical, and biochemistry with cognate course work in biology, mathematics and physics.  A concentration in biochemistry or chemistry is required.  The B.A. program is not certified by the American Chemical Society.

Any student accepted for admission to CSUSB can declare music as major and pursue the BA in Music degree.  Examinations and auditions are available for advanced placement only, not as an entrance requirement.

All students enrolled as full-time music majors in the BA in Music are required to participate each semester until graduation in a major performing ensemble most appropriate to a student's applied emphasis.

• A theory placement examination (proficiency in music fundamentals equal to that of MUS 1100 and MUS 1110),
• A piano proficiency audition, and
• An applied music audition (performance proficiency equal to collegiate applied music at the 1400-1450 level.
