• Bold type indicates courses requiring a quality grade of C or better.
• Italics indicate courses that satisfy both major and General Education requirements.
• Bold Italics indicate courses requiring a quality grade of C or better and that satisfy both major and General Education requirements.
• GWS, GHA, GQ, GN, GA, GH, and GS are codes used to identify General Education requirements.
• US, IL, and US;IL are codes used to designate courses that satisfy University United States/International Cultures requirement.
• W is the code used to designate courses that satisfy University Writing Across the Curriculum requirements.

Scheduling patterns for courses not taught each semester: Courses taught fall semester only – NUTR 370, 380, 456. Courses taught spring semester only – HRIM 385, NUTR 170 (suggested, not required).
Program Notes: BI SC 004 (GN) is suggested for students with less than two years of HS biology prior to taking BIOL 141. MATH 022 or FTCAP placement into MATH 110 or MATH 140 is a prerequisite for CHEM 110. If other GN was taken, CHEM 110 will count as a GN if the lab (CHEM 111) is also taken.
