PHYSICAL SCIENCES All laborato ry cou rses in physical sc iences have a $15.00 laboratory fee.
Objecrives: The Physical Sc ience major is designed to give a student some breadth in the physical sc iences. Within the major a student may emphasize biochemistry , chem istry , or physics. The major serves as preparation for teaching chemistry or physics in secondary schools and as pre-professional training for the medical or techni cal fie lds. Engineering: Students who plan to study engineering may fulfill the first two years of the req uirements of many e ngineer ing schoo ls by taking the fo ll owing cou rses. Chemistry : 105, 106 Mathematical Science: 105, 106, 205, 206 Physics: 2 1 I , 222 Departmenr major: One of three areas may be emphas ized. These are: biochemistry , chem istry, or physics. Physical Science majors are exempt from the general education requirement of eight units of Science and/or Mathematical Sc ie nces.
