Some notes about the Required Hours:

Typically, 3 hours equals one course, but that may not be true for all courses. Always check. Select the number of courses necessary to add up to the Required Hours for each category. For your reference, each course is linked to its full description in the Undergraduate Studies Catalog. Always check credit hours and prerequisites, and always work with an advisor to insure that you are selecting the right courses to meet your degree plan requirements.
