Degrees and Degree Requirements

Degrees
A student completing graduation requirements with a major in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, or Psychology shall receive a B.S. (Bachelor of Science) degree.  A student with a major in the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies may receive a B.S. degree if recommended by the Director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies. Other students with majors in the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies receive the A.B. (Bachelor of Arts) degree, as do students completing graduation requirements with a major in any department not listed above. The College awards degrees only at the end of the Spring Semester and at the end of the summer.

Davidson does not award dual degrees. A student who completes requirements for two majors in departments that offer majors leading to different degrees must choose the degree to be conferred, A.B. or B.S. A student who has a Bachelor’s degree from Davidson or from another institution may not receive a second degree from Davidson using credit from a previous degree.
