Laboratory Requirement (12 units) [can be satisfied by 10.7003[J] in the Departmental Program]	1
Total GIR Subjects Required for SB Degree	17

Physical Education Requirement
Swimming requirement, plus four physical education courses for eight points.

Departmental Program

Choose at least two subjects in the major that are designated as communication-intensive (CI-M) to fulfill the Communication Requirement.
