  The following science option is based on whether the two-part science sequence above was a life science sequence or a physical science sequence. If the two-part science sequence was a life science sequence, this science must be a physical science. If the two-part science sequence was a physical science sequence, this science must be a life science. (Note: ENSC is both a life and physical science.)

General Notes

• All bachelor’s degrees must include 40 hours at the 300/400 level.
• All bachelor’s degrees require the successful completion of at least nine hours of Natural Sciences General Education Core Curriculum  courses. Six hours shall be earned in a single life or physical science; the remaining three hours must be earned in a natural science area other than that previously selected (both life and physical sciences must be taken to fulfill this requirement).
• All degree and graduation requirements may be found on the Academic Regulations  page.
