Laboratory Science requirement
Students are required to take one laboratory science course. 
Choose one of the following courses:
ANATOMY 32, 34A, 34B
BIOL 8, 10, 11, 17+18 (both courses are required), 101, 102, 103+104 (both courses are required)
CHEM 1A, 1B, 4, 7A, 7B, 20
MICRO 33
OCEAN 10
PHYSICS 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 11+12 (both courses are required),

Elective Science requirement
Besides the laboratory science requirement stated above, students must complete a further 18 semester hours of electives, 15 of which may be at the lower division level. Students are encouraged to prepare, in consultation with an advisor, a coherent set of electives to complete a major with an emphasis in scientific computing, business applications, or games and animation. Students who wish to transfer to LMU and major in Computer Science with one of these emphases should contact Tom Gutto (admissions@lmu.edu) for advisement on the remaining science electives that may be completed at the lower division level.
