Division III - Foundations of Natural Sciences - Mathematics

These courses primarily focus on scientific and quantitative reasoning and understanding the natural world.

Students elect a minimum of six credits with two courses from this division; students must choose at least three credits from the science courses in this division. Students should also note that completion of a laboratory science is a graduation requirement.

 

The three numbers in parentheses indicate the hours devoted to lecture, discussion and laboratory. If no indication exists, the credit hours are lecture.
