College Requirements:

Second Writing Requirement:

A Second Writing Requirement approved by the College of Arts and Sciences. This course must be taken after completion of 60 credit hours, completed with a minimum grade of C-, and the section enrolled must be designated as satisfying the requirement in the academic term completed.

College Breadth Requirements:

The College Breadth Requirements are in addition to the University Breadth Requirement. Up to three credits from each of the University Breadth Requirement categories may be used to simultaneously satisfy these College Breadth Requirements.

A total of eighteen credits from Groups A, B and C is required with a minimum of six credits in each group. The six credits from each group could be from the same area. Minimum grade C-.

Major Requirements:

A grade of C- or better is required for major courses and related work. Students lacking adequate preparation for MATH 242 should begin with MATH 241 .

Mathematics Courses:
