1. E 115 may substitute for PMS 100

2. These courses must be selected from the university-approved GER lists. At least one of the courses chosen to satisfy the GER Humanities and Social Sciences requirement must focus on a non-English speaking culture. Science, Technology, and Society electives are to be chosen from the GER Humanities and Social Sciences perspective list.

3. An alternative to PY 205 and PY 208, is PY 201 and PY 202

4. Introduction to programming course must be chosen from the following: MA 116, CSC 112, 114 or 116

5. The two PE credits must include at least one Fitness and Wellness course.

6. Advanced Writing and Speaking course must be chosen from the following: ENG 33*, COM 110, 112, 146, 211, FL* 200>, GRK 200>, or LAT 200>.

7. Free elective courses can not be ECI 105, ED 105, ENG 110, FL* 1**, GRK 1**, LAT 1**, MA 100, 101, 103, 107, 108, 111, 121, 131, 231, PY 131, 211, and 212.

8. At least two major paper courses must be chosen from the following: MA 402, 427, 428, 432, 433, 435, 437, 491, 494, 544, 573, 574, BMA 573, 574, ENG 33*. Students must demonstrate foreign language proficiency at the FL_102 level.

9. Grades of D are not accepted in ENG 101 and any required mathematics course numbered below 400. At most one D grade is permitted in required or elective mathematics courses. Only, one grade lower than a C- is allowed among the following: CH 101, CH 102, Introduction to Programming, the two-semester Introduction to Physics courses, and the two courses satisfying the Statistics requirement.

10. Math electives must be chosen from the following: LOG 335, MA 325, 335, 341, 351 or MA 400> (except MA 403, 433, 507, 508, 509, 510, 511). A sequence of two 3-hour courses in an area of advanced mathematics is required.

11. The preferred sequence is ST 380 with MA 421. Alternatives to the sequence are ST 371-372, or ST 421-422, or MA 421-ST 370. If either ST 371 or ST 421 are taken, then they would be a science elective. If MA 421 is taken with a ST course, MA 421 would be a Math Elective.

12. Sci/Eng courses must be selected from the following: BIO 18*, PB ***, CE ***, CH ***, ECE ***, ECI 305, 416, EMS 470, 480, GN ***, ISE ***, MAE ***, MAT ***, MB ***, MEA ***, NE ***, NTR ***, OR ***, PP***, PY 300>, or ZO ***.

13. Bus/Comp Sci/Stat courses must be chosen from the following: ACC ***, BUS ***, EC ***, CSC *** (except CSC 100 or CSC 200), ST 300> (except ST 311 or ST 361), or a Science/Engineering course.
