Organizational Studies at Temple is a major designed for the
adult student who wants to complete a bachelor's degree. Recently developed
by Temple faculty, it is an innovative liberal arts
degree with a business focus, building competencies in communications
and technology as well as in critical thinking. Its intellectual center
is the study of organizations in a social science framework, and it
provides information about the workplace of the present and the future.
Five foundation courses begin this major, which can be completed by
taking one of a wide range of courses to fulfill each of its advanced
requirements, concluding with a research/writing capstone.
The delivery of Organizational Studies is
also innovative. Temple courses can be taken online as well as in traditional classrooms
at University campuses and at two community colleges: Bucks and Delaware.
Temple considers a student of 22 years of age or older to be an
adult student, and accommodates elements of the application process
for them.
