**This laboratory is optional with the associated course. If the laboratory is not
taken, the associated course can count as a science course for General
Education STEM requirements, but does not satisfy the requirement of taking
at least one laboratory course.
Some degree programs specify some or all of these STEM credits.
Students should check with their academic advisor for specific
requirements.
