Advising Notes:
- Under English and Humanities (12 credits), students should select one course to fulfill The Arts General Education requirement in addition to ENGL101, ENGL102 and an additional 3 credit hour English Elective.
- Under Behavioral and Social Sciences (9 credits), students should choose either ECON201 or ECON202 and one course to fulfill the Western Civilization and American History General Education requirement.
- Under Natural Sciences and Mathematics (20 credits minimum), students should take BIOL103 and BIOL104, MATH108 and MATH214 to maximize transfer credit in this major. Math below MATH108 will not transfer into this major. Students are also encouraged to complete CHEM103 and CHEM104 as additional science electives.
- Under Liberal Arts Electives (9 credits) and Free Electives (9 credits), students interested in pursuing a focus in GIS, may take up to 5 GIS courses (GIS111, GIS121, GIS122, GIS205, and GIS220 or GIS222) to fulfill 8 credits of advanced science and math and 6 credits of free electives at ESF.
- Under Other World Civilization/The ARTS (3 credits), students should select one course to fulfill the Other World Civilization General Education Requirement. The Arts General Education requirement has previously been met under the Humanities Elective Requirement.
- Students are encouraged to discuss with their faculty advisor the opportunity to take an additional course in Computing Methods, General Physics I or Calculus II to transfer with junior class standing. Students and/or Faculty Advisors should refer to the transfer articulation guidelines for proper course selection to satisfy these requirements.
