Wright State is a nationally accredited state university with an impressive range of study. It consists of such colleges: Education and Human Services; Engineering and Computer Science; Lake Campus; Liberal Arts; Nursing and Health; Raj Soin College of Business; Science and Mathematics; University College; and following Schools: Boonshoft School of Medicine; Graduate Studies; Professional Psychology. WSU offers a 109 undergraduate and 57 professional degrees and programs in diverse areas of study.

As a part of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree at WSU, students must complete a minimum of 56 hours of course work in the General Education Program (GEP). The GEP is required of all students and serves as a foundation upon which all baccalaureate programs are built. Substitutions can be made for some General Education courses.

A bachelor’s degree awarded by a university implies more than career preparation or specialized technical competency. A university education should be broadly based in order to promote intellectual growth, cultivate critical examination and informed understanding, encourage breadth and flexibility of perspective, and provide students an opportunity to develop skills and knowledge that will form the basis for their life-long learning.
