The suggested four year schedule lists “Electives”. What electives should a Freshman take?
Certain of the General Education Distribution Courses are open to Freshmen since the prerequisite has been waived. These courses are designated on the list on pp 138-9 of the Undergrad Catalog by a * after the course number (i.e. PSY2000*). These are good choices since 15 credits of Distribution Courses are required for graduation. • There seem to be lots of electives on the four year schedule. There are not that many electives in the degree requirements. What do you mean by “electives”? “Elective” is a catch-all word used to designate slots for courses not explicitly required. A course required as part of a declared minor or a concentration area in the Applied Physics major would be an “elective”. The General Education distribution courses would also be electives.
