Course Listing
*Courses marked with an asterisk (*) are not counted toward the requirement of no fewer than 18 credits in advanced courses for majors in this department.
Courses marked with a number sign (#) are applicable to the 60-credit science and mathematics requirement for the B.S. degrees in biology, chemistry, computer and information science (including computational mathematics), earth and environmental sciences, mathematics, physics, psychology, and the interdepartmental major in science. The number sign (#) does not affect the requirements for the B.S. degree program in health and nutrition sciences.
§Independent work means not less than three additional hours each week of conference, research, reading, and writing as assigned by the instructor. The student's grade is determined in part by the successful completion of this independent work.
The college has recently transitioned to a new course numbering system in preparation for the migration to the CUNYfirst platform. Old course numbers are provided in the parenthesis after the "/" symbol.
