Every student must successfully complete a one-year course with a laboratory in a natural science (8 credits), and 3 additional credits in either the natural sciences or mathematics. A mathematics course taken to fulfill this requirement must be at a higher level than the course taken to meet the mathematics proficiency requirement.
The laboratory science requirement is satisfied by taking one of the one-year introductory courses, with laboratory, offered in the natural sciences area. Students with specific career or major interests in scientific fields should seek academic guidance in choosing laboratory courses.
The following courses fulfill the laboratory science requirement:
21&62:120:101-102 General Biology
21&62:120:109,110 Basic Plant Science and Basic Plant Science Laboratory or 21&62:120:206,207 General Horticulture and Horticulture Laboratory
21&62:160:101-102 World of Chemistry and 21&62:160:109,110 World of Chemistry Laboratory
