This page contains supplemental information to that found in the Undergraduate Calendar; specifically, the suggested course sequencing for completing your degree in eight academic terms. Deviating from this sequencing is allowed, but students need to recognize that this may extend the number of terms of study. Students who opt to go on exchange, forcing them to deviate from the suggested course sequence, should take this into consideration when choosing to study abroad and discuss any possible ramifications with their academic advisor. The Undergraduate Calendar is the official resource for all degree requirements, including undergraduate regulations. Students must refer to the Undergraduate Calendar to ensure approved degree requirements are being met. If there is a discrepancy between this page and the Undergraduate Calendar, the Undergraduate Calendar being the official source for degree requirements and undergraduate regulations, will take precedence.
