†The Pathways curriculum is typically 42 credits. However, the Health and Nutrition Sciences (Concentration in Public Health) major includes two courses (CHEM 1040 and BIOL 1001) that also satisfy Pathways requirements. Therefore, students majoring in Health and Nutrition Sciences (Concentration in Public Health) only need to complete 36 additional Pathways credits.
The four-year degree map is designed to help you take the right courses in the right order so you can graduate in four years. It also helps you distinguish what courses qualify as Pathways courses, or Major courses, or General Elective courses. Ideally, you should follow the four-year degree map as closely as possible, but you are free to make some adjustments so long as the prerequisite requirements are satisfied.
*Students must complete two HNSC Electives from the following courses: any HNSC 2000-level or higher course, ANTH 1100, ANTH 3150, ANTH 3135, ECON 3500, EESC 3750, HIST 3478, KINS 3281 (same as HNSC 2302), KINS 3285 (same as HNSC 2303), PHIL 3306, PHIL 3316, POLS 1002, POLS 3415, PSYC 1000, SOCY 1101, SOCY 3202, SUST 1001, WGST 3122, WGST 3501.
Additionally, candidates for a B.S. degree with a major in Health and Nutrition Science must complete at least 24 credits in Health and Nutrition Science at Brooklyn College with a grade of C or higher in each course.
In conjunction with the four-year degree map, you should review Degree Works, and the Brooklyn College website, for an approved list of courses in your major. Overall, it is best to review your academic plan with your advisor on a regular basis.
