2021-2022 Catalog

Natural Sciences

For the purposes of fulfilling the General Education: Foundational Series Natural Science requirement or students seeking a Bachelor's degree, Presentation College considers the Natural Sciences to include the following:

  • Biology
  • Chemistry
  • Nutrition 
  • Physics
  • Astronomy
  • Earth sciences
  • Environmental science

Presentation College also applies the following Exercise Science courses toward the Natural Science requirement:

  • EXSC 373: Exercise Physiology,
  • EXSC 393: Kinesiology
  • EXSC 403: Clinical Exercise Physiology
  • EXSC 3082: Introduction to Biomechanics.

Fulfillment of the Natural Science requirement requires both a lecture course and a laboratory course; thus, a student taking a natural science course that does not include a laboratory component (e.g., EXSC 393) will still need to take a laboratory course to complete this requirement.

Natural Science does not include the various applied sciences.
