General Science


Overview

The Minor in General Science is restricted to students in the BSc. Liberal program and may be used for the breadth component in this option.

The BSc. Liberal program is a flexible program where you combine a core science component (CSC) in one discipline with a breadth component. A CSC is less specialized than a Major. You should consider the Liberal program and the General Science Minor if you do not want to overly specialize – and as a bonus, you’ll have plenty of room left over for elective courses.
