Major Requirements that Satisfy General Education

Social work majors are required to select PSYC 1030  and SOC 1010  as their social and behavioral science core.  The department suggests MATH 1530  , although we will accept any of the other core math courses.  Four of the 8 required hours in natural sciences must be in a biology course with substantive human content.  We recommend BIOL 1040/BIOL 1041  but will also accept BIOL 2010/BIOL 2011 .
