Notes
* A minimum of 120 units is required for graduation.
1Chemistry 4A is intended for students majoring in chemistry or a closely related field.
2The Humanities/Social Sciences (H/SS) requirement includes two approved reading and composition courses and four additional approved courses, with which a number of specific conditions must be satisfied. Reading and Composition “A” and “B” must be completed by no later than the end of the sophomore year. The remaining courses may be taken at any time during the program. See humanities and social sciences for complete details and a list of approved courses.
3Complete three courses from the following list: Biology 1A/1AL; Biology 1B; Chemistry 1B; 3A/3AL, 3B/3BL, 4B; Physics 7C; Earth and Planetary Science 50. Note: Approved scores on Biology AP, IB or A-Level Exams can satisfy two of the three basic science electives.
4The 12 units of cluster courses are in addition to engineering and science courses used to fulfill other requirements of the program. See approved cluster course list for options.
5See Advanced Science Course Sequence. Choose one of the sequences of 8-10 units.
6Free electives can be any technical or non-technical course, any course of your interest offered by any department. There are no restrictions.

Notes
* A minimum of 120 units is required for graduation.
**A fifth semester is granted to transfer student admits who are missing at least three lower division technical courses, of at least 3 units each, for the Environmental Engineering Science major when they matriculate to UC Berkeley. Eligible transfer students must contact their ESS Adviser in order to request the fifth semester.
1Students may choose to take ME 40 or ChemE 141 instead of E 40 if they have completed the prerequisites for ME 40 or ChemE 141.
