Notes

* Students should consider taking MATH 1451 and MATH 1452 (Calculus I and II) instead of Applied Calculus to provide more degree and graduate school options in the future

† After taking PHYS 1321/1121 or CHEM 1402, students should complete the year via the next course in sequence (PHYS 1322/1122 or CHEM 1403). Students should also consider taking the sequence PHYS 2321/2121 & PHY 2322/2122 to provide more degree and graduate school options in the future 

‡ Major electives must be chosen from upper-level courses from CSEC, CPSC, IFSC, CRJU, BINS, with the approval of an advisor
