Laboratory Science requirement
Students are required to take one laboratory science course.

Choose one of the following courses:

BIO 3A, 3B, 3C, 11, 12, 15, 19, 20, 113

CHEM 1A, 1B, 3, 12A, 12B, 108

ENV 18, 19

PHYS 2A, 2B, 4A, 4B, 4C, 20

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.
