Bachelor of Science Option (BS
Degree instead of BA in PSYC)
Students who wish
to pursue the Bachelor of Science degree (B.S.) must complete at
least 5 courses/17 credits in mathematics and science. Courses used
to satisfy the math/science supporting course sequence, required of
all psychology majors, (list A, given below) may be used to satisfy
the requirement for the B.S. degree. Please note, however, that all
B.S. candidates must complete at least three advanced courses (list
B, given below) and at least two lab courses. Use the B.S.
checklist on the next page to plan the way you will satisfy these
requirements and consult with an advisor if you have any questions.

Psychology Supporting Math and Science Courses:
BSCI
105, 106
CHEM
131/132 (formerly CHEM
103), 113

NOTE:
1.
These lists are subject to change. We strongly recommend
that you ask a psychology advisor to review the way you plan to
satisfy the B.S. requirements and that a notation be made in your
file.
2.
A GPA of 2.0 or higher must be obtained in the 17 credit
supporting sequence. For example, a grade of “D” may be counted
towards the B.S. as long as the student has higher grades (“B” or
better) in other classes to compensate for the “D.”
3.
Advanced math/science courses taken to fulfill the B.S.
requirements may not be used to satisfy the CORE Advanced
Studies requirement.
4.
You may not count a 300 or 400 level Advanced Science course
used to fulfill the B.S. requirement in Psyc. towards your Advanced
Studies Requirement for CORE.
