1MATH 106 and 108 are required courses. However, if students have tested into or taken MATH 140, 171, 172 or ALEKS with an 80% or better, MATH 106 and 108 will be waived. If waived, students may need to take additional credits to meet the University minimum of 120 credits.
2Alternative to NATRS 300 is BIOLOGY 372.
3Alternative to NATRS 312 is ENVR SCI 444. Students choosing ENVR SCI 444 will need to take a [DIVR] course as an elective to fulfill University requirements.
4Choose two of the following Animal Systematics Courses: BIOLOGY 412, 423, 428, or 432 [M].
5Two years of high school foreign language or at least two semesters of college-level foreign language are required by the College of Arts and Sciences for graduation.
6Certified students in the School of the Environment are required to fulfill the Experiential Requirement before graduation. This requirement is designed to give students experience that they will not receive in the traditional classroom oriented course, and to better prepare them for a successful career after graduation. Approved courses include ENVR SCI 492, 495, NATRS 479, or as approved by advisor. Students can also meet the requirement by documenting at least 135 hours of volunteer or paid work related to their field of study and approved by their advisor. This allows students to obtain relevant experience without the constraints of a course taught during a particular semester.
