Lumen Programs Form: Related Programs Section

Direction and guidance for completing the fields in the Related Programs section of program proposals.

List majors and certificates that may not be earned in combination with this program.

If a program determines there is a similar enough program where the student should not be completing both programs, you must list those exclusions here (i.e. Business: Accounting BBA and an Accounting undergraduate certificate). You must also list this information in the How to Get in Guide integration point.

  • Select each program from the drop-down. Utilize the green plus button if there are more than one program that should not be completed with this program.
  • The filed pulls from all transcript titles in Lumen programs, so there are multiple for each degree level (i.e. French BA, French MA, French PHD); the degree does not display. It does not matter which you select.
