• The second course in Option 3 counts as a Middle Cluster course in Competency Area 3 – Mathematics / Symbolic Systems.

NOTE: Many majors / degree programs require students to take specific courses to fulfill mathematics requirements. Students should consult The Bulletin and their advisor regarding specific course requirements. It is also important that students are aware of sequencing of mathematics courses, for example MATH 127 should be taken prior to MATH 143 or MATH 229 or MATH 234.
