General STEM
About the track
Overview
The general STEM pathway is intended for students who are unsure of the major they would like to pursue, but whose interests lay in STEM. The STEM pathway includes general courses required by most BS degrees as well as courses intended to explore major possibilities.
Due to a recent switch to a General Education elective structure, some printed materials may contain outdated course suggestions. Please work with your advisor to ensure you are enrolling in the correct courses.
