Notes:
- For each degree program, the “Major-Field Requirements” and any associated “Other Requirements” are defined under 4. Program Details. For each BA and BSc degree with a Major Field (and for the BCS and BFS) at least 7.0 and not more than 8.0 full-course equivalents in the Major Field are normally required. Students can choose to include additional courses in the Major Field to a maximum of 10.0 full-course equivalents. The Major Fields in BFA and BMus degrees typically require considerably more courses. The completion of some programs requires additional supporting courses from outside the Major Field.
