STEM Core Advising Notes
The Studies in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Core allows students to develop an interdisciplinary course
of study emphasizing the science, technology, engineering, and/or mathematics disciplines. The STEM core is designed to allow
students to pursue a general exploration of these disciplines while deepening knowledge through a selected academic focus. For
additional information, please visit the General Studies website.
In this Core, students will develop an intentional academic plan that reflects personal, academic, and career goals emphasizing
the following discipline areas or individual courses:
Astronomy (ASTR)
Biology (BIOL)
Chemistry (CHEM)
Computer Science (CMSC)
Electrical Engineering (ENEE)
Engineering Science (ENES)
Geology (GEOL)
Mathematics (MATH)
Meteorology (AOSC)
Nutrition (NUTR)
Physical Science (PSCI)
Physics (PHYS)
Student may elect to take any of the following individual courses as part of their STEM Core requirements to enhance their
selected academic focus; however, transferability of these courses should be carefully reviewed:
Architecture Technology (ARCH 101)
Biotechnology (BIOT 110)
Computer Application (CMAP 120)
Landscape Technology (LNTP 100)
Networking (NWIT 101)
NOTE: This Core may not be appropriate for students intending to transfer to another institution for a life sciences, engineering, or mathematics degree program;
students should meet with an advisor before selecting this Core.
Studies in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics 611B- General Degree Requirements
NOTE: Students intending to transfer to pursue a 4 year degree in Hospitality Management or Criminal Justice should consult an advisor to
determine how to use this Core.
In order to complete this degree, students must
1. Complete of a minimum of 60 Credit hours including
General Education Requirements- 31 Credit hours ***

** Behavioral and Social Science Distribution (BSSD) courses must come from different disciplines.
*** Students must complete one Global or Cultural Perspectives designated course as part of their General Education Program.
‡ Students should attempt ENGL and MATH foundation requirements within completion of the first 24 credits of college level work or at the
completion of any prerequisite or required non- credit coursework.
‡‡ Any credit hours beyond the minimum in General Education (31 Credit hours) or Core courses are counted toward elective credit hours.
† Two general education institutional requirement (GEIR) courses required from the following general education courses: COMM, HLTH , or
one ARTD or HUMD. Students may only take one course from ARTD or HUMD to fulfill General Education Institutional Requirements.
†† Consult a counselor/advisor for NSND/Science course selection. Students potentially interested in science, health or engineer transfer
programs should consider a 4 credit lab science course.
Please Note: Exact semester credit counts may vary based on specific course selections.
Students transferring to a specific four year institution, please check the Transfer Agreements site for articulated pathways that identify required coursework.
