General Education: Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)
15 credits required: 4 credits (minimum) from Mathematics & 7 credits (minimum) from Science
2016-2017
Students must take a minimum of 15 credits in STEM following these
requirements:
 A minimum of 4 credits are required from the Mathematics
list
 Complete at least two courses in two different disciplines
(different course prefixes) from the Science list
o Minimum of 7 Science credits required
o at least one of the Science courses must include
or be taken with the accompanying laboratory
 No more than 4 credits from the Restricted STEM list may
be counted toward the STEM requirement
 Some courses are on the STEM list and the HASS list, but
each course can satisfy only one requirement
Some degree programs specify some or all STEM requirements; students
should check with their academic advisor for specific requirements
