University College-Newark's learning objectives call for an ability to produce knowledge through multiple modes of inquiry. All students must therefore complete two courses with laboratories in the natural sciences.
The courses must come from a list of approved courses offered by the departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Physics, or Earth and Environmental Sciences.
The two courses do not need to be offered by the same department: one course in biology and one course in chemistry, for instance, will be accepted.
For an updated list of courses that satisfy this requirement, please refer to the Office of Academic Services website at http://www.ncas.rutgers.edu/natural-sciences.
