Select two courses from this list. These courses can also satisfy the B.S. degree lab science requirement.
If you select two courses from the same subject area, then you will need to complete an additional lab science course from a different subject area to satisfy the B.S. degree requirement. The additional course does not need to be on this list.
Lab science courses that are not included in a science major cannot be used to satisfy this requirement. Some lab science courses that DO NOT satisfy this unique requirement include: ASTRONMY 112, BIOLOGY 120, CHEM 100, GEOGRPY 120, and PHYSCS 130.
