¹Students graduating from this program must demonstrate proficiency in specific computer competencies by passing ITE 152 (transfer elective) or an equivalent competency test. Students are encouraged not to wait until the final semester to complete this requirement.

²Independent study presentation is to be completed in collaboration with a 200-level science/math course or the specific course determined by each science track, if listed.

³MTH 265 is required for Chemistry majors at most universities. Check the school to which you plan to transfer for requirements.

⁴The same PHY course may not be used to fulfill both the Lab Science and Science Elective. PHY 201-202 does not fulfill the 200-level science elective requirement, as it does not transfer for a chemistry major.
