GROUP D: Mathematics, Natural Sciences, and Technology

Approved Group D College Breadth Requirement Courses:

The courses approved to fulfill the Group D: Mathematics, Natural Sciences, and Technology requirements are grouped into three sections:

Single Courses Approved for Group D - these courses are approved to fulfill the Group D requirements only. In some cases, it is the Lecture course of a Lecture and Laboratory sequence, however, the courses do not have mutual co-requisites, meaning the Lecture can be taken independently of the Laboratory component and meets only the Group D requirement, not the Group D with Laboratory component.
Single Course Approved for Group D & Group D with Lab - these courses are approved to fulfill both the Group D and Group D with Lab requirements. In come cases, the Laboratory course has a co-requisite of the Lecture course in order to fulfill both requirements.
Two Course Sequence Approved for Group D & Group D with Lab - these courses are approved to fulfill both the Group D & Group D with Lab requirements with mutual co-requisites on the Lecture and Laboratory courses.
