Notes
* A minimum of 120 units is required for graduation.
1CHEM 4A is intended for students majoring in chemistry or a closely related field.
2The Humanities/Social Sciences (H/SS) requirement includes two approved Reading & Composition (R&C) courses and four additional approved courses, with which a number of specific conditions must be satisfied. R&C courses must be taken for a letter grade (C- or better required). The first half (R&C Part A) must be completed by the end of the freshman year; the second half (R&C Part 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: BIOLOGY 1A+1AL, 1B; CHEM 1B, 3A+3AL, 3B+3BL, 4B; EPS 50; PHYSICS 7C. Note: Approved scores on Biology AP, IB,or A-Level exams can satisfy two of the three basic science electives.
4 Cluster courses: The 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. While the courses are organized by topic, students may take any combination of courses from any of the lists.
5Advanced Science Sequence: Choose 8-10 units from the following: CHEM 12A, 12B, 120A, 120B, 125; EPS 101, 103, 108, 109, 113, 116, 117, 124, C180, C181, C182; ESPM C103, 111, 112, 120, C128, 131; GEOG 142; MCELLBI 102, C112+C112L
6Free electives can be any technical or non-technical course, any course of your interest offered by any department; there are no restrictions. Free electives may be necessary in order to obtain the minimum 120 units for graduation.
