The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board will be converting the "Areas of Concentration" to "Fields of Study" over the next few years. The business field of study curriculum will be identical in all public two-year and four-year colleges and universities throughout Texas. Students who major in a specific field will be required to take the courses in the appropriate Field of Study, no matter which Texas public, college or university they will be attending. The combination of the Core Curriculum and the Field of Study will constitute a complete set of courses for the freshman and sophomore years and the student will then be ready to begin junior level classes in Texas, public four-year college or university.
