In order for students to receive Associate Degrees, as well as meet state high school requirements, the Missouri Academy curriculum is less Math, Science and Computer oriented as you might have originally expected.
Contents
Requirements
The curriculum requires
- Four semesters of English
- Math through Calculus II
- Chemistry through Chemistry II
- Physics through Physics II
- One humanities
- American Government
- One semester of Biology
- One semester of Computer Science
- A second semester of either Biology or Computer Science
English
Academy students are required to complete four semesters of English classes.
- English 111 (Composition)
- English 112 (More Composition)
- Oral Communication
- Any one of the following literature classes:
Math
Required Courses
These are courses that you either must take or test out of:
Other Available Courses
Biology
You must take at least one biology course; two if you intend to take only one Computer Science course.
The proposed curriculum changes for the class of 2007 requires that students take General Biology and General Microbiology.
Editorial Note: We're terribly sorry about the Micro requirement. Really, it wasn't always this dumb.
Chemistry
- General Chemistry I (3 hours) and lab (1 hour)
- General Chemistry II (4 hours) and lab (1 hour)
Physics
- Mechanics (4 hours) and lab (1 hour)
- Electricity and Magnetism (4 hours) and lab (1 hour)
Computer Science
Computer Science at Northwest is of variety that produces assembly line programmers (not to be confused with the computer language assembler] ). Sure, they're the factory workers of today, but where's the fun?
History/Humanities
- America - A Historical Survey (3 hours)
- Introduction to American Government and Politics (3 hours)
Humanities courses are often taken during May, but those available during the normal year include:
- Western Civilization I - Ancient world to 1500 (3 hours)
- Western Civilization II - 1500 to Present (3 hours)
- Introduction to Philosophy (3 hours)
Others
In addition to the above, students are expected to take Seminar and Colloquium.
