3. Notes

A. The same course cannot be used to satisfy multiple requirements in one plan. 

B. In planning their program, students should keep in mind that some of the 300- and 400-level courses listed are not offered every year and that many 400-level courses may be taken in third year.

C. Graduate courses at the 800-level are available to fourth-year students with an excellent record who obtain permission of the Department and of the School of Graduate Studies and Research.

D. A maximum of 6.00 units from courses offered by other Faculties and Schools may be counted toward the program and/or Plan requirements. This includes courses in BMED, COMM, GLPH, HSCI, LAW, NURS, and courses offered by Smith Engineering.
