Natural Science Elective

Students must complete one of the following:

• BL 150  -  Foundations of Biology I
• CH 101  -  General Chemistry I
• PH 202  -  General Physics II

First Year

Sophomore Year

Junior Year

Senior Year

Notes:

1. Students must complete BL 150 , CH 101 , or PH 202  to fulfill the natural science elective. Each of the courses has a corequisite lab that is not required for the compuater science BS major. It is strongly recommended that students speak with their advisor before registering for one of these courses. 
2. All electives must be at least three credits.
3. All science courses must be majors-level courses emphasizing quantitative and/or experimental methods in a physical or biological science and not a primarily computational, mathematical, or engineering design course. Majors-level courses can be identified by the fact that they satisfy a major requirement for biology, chemistry, or physics. BL 150 /BL 151 , BL 152 /BL 153 , CH 101 /CH 105 , CH 102 /CH 106 , and PH 202 /PH 292  meet this requirement.
4. The degree may be accomplished in 38 courses due to the associated labs counting toward 120 credits. Although students have flexibility on when to take their 2 semesters that are four 3-credit courses, we recommend that at least one of these semesters aligns with when the student takes physics. Ideally the second semester will be one in which the student is taking courses with labs, particularly in the first two years.
5. CS 403  is recommended for computer science and data science double majors instead of DS 303 .
