FAQ - Double Counting
Can
some courses be double counted for the major and GE?
University policy states that courses taken in the major department
may not be used to satisfy GE requirements. However, major
requirement courses housed in other major departments can be used
for both GE and major requirements if they appear on the list of
approved GE courses in the Schedule
of Classes. For example, Electrical Engineering majors
are required to take chemistry, mathematics, and physics courses
which are taught in departments other than Electrical Engineering.
Since those courses appear on the approved list of GE courses, Electrical
Engineering majors may use these courses for both the major and
GE in terms of subject credit. Students only receive unit credit
once for the course(s) taken. The University's rule that major
department courses may not be used for GE also has some exceptions.
