General Education and University Requirements

To satisfy the requirements of this degree, students must successfully complete all Undergraduate Requirements .  Some of these (Upper Division Service Learning and GWAR) are embedded in the major curriculum.

Select and complete coursework to meet the following requirements:

• Upper division GE Area 2 or 5   Only Environmental Data Analysis Concentration students need this - UD-Area 2 is embedded in the other concentrations
• Upper division GE Area 3   
• Upper division GE Area 4   
• American Institutions  
• World Culture & Language     

Students may select additional elective coursework if necessary to complete 60 units.
