General Science Minor

This minor includes 20 semester hours including a minimum of eight semester hours in any two areas of science (biology, chemistry, earth science or physics) and four semester hours in a third area. SCNC 101-Natural Science and SCNC 102-Physical Science may not be used to complete this minor.

The General Science minor can be readily adapted to fulfill middle school endorsement requirements. Middle school endorsement in science requires completion of 24 semester hours in science. Of these 24 semester hours, a minimum of six hours must be in biology/life science and six hours must be in earth science (astronomy or geology), and a minimum of four hours each in chemistry and physics.
