Advising Course Plan - Health Sciences Major - 3 Year Plan

This advising plan shows an example of working through the requirements for the major in three years.  It is appropriate for students who have already completed eight units of coursework.  The student’s individual academic plan will be developed in consultation with an adviser and reviewed each semester prior to registering for the next semester.  This plan assumes that the student has not taken any courses for the major prior to the first semester shown in the plan.

The plan does not allow for  pre-requisites specified for graduate requirements to pursue a specific career or specialty in health sciences.

Courses that should be completed prior to the first semester of this plan: General Education requirements for the College of Arts and Sciences or General electives to make up 8 course units (32 credits)
