Nebraska LR447 proposes an interim study to explore how baccalaureate degrees requiring fewer than the traditional 120 credit hours could benefit the state. The study will examine geographic areas, industries, student populations, and institutions that could benefit from such degrees. It aims to assess how these alternative pathways could improve degree attainment, expand access, and align education with workforce needs. The Education Committee will conduct the study and report findings to the Legislative Council or Legislature.
