NOTES: Students should confirm math requirement at four-year transfer institution. Although a math sequence fulfills the requirements for an NRCC program, it may not fulfill the math requirement for the student's intended major at a four-year institution. Students who plan to transfer need to determine the four-year institution's math requirement prior to course selection. General transfer information is available at http://www2.nr.edu/transfer. Mathematics Sequences: The Mathematics requirement may be selected from the following sequences: MTH 154-MTH 155 Quantitative Reasoning & Statistical Reasoning MTH 155-MTH 161 Statistical Reasoning & PreCalculus I MTH 154-MTH 245 Quantitative Reasoning & Statistics I MTH 161-MTH 261 PreCalculus I & Applied Calculus I MTH 261-MTH 262 Applied Calculus I & II MTH 167-MTH 263 PreCalculus with Trigonometry & Calculus I MTH 263-MTH 264 Calculus I & II Students may choose from college approved Humanities/Fine Arts Requirements in the college catalog, with the exception of ENG options, to fulfill this requirement. Strongly recommend taking ART 101 or ART 102. The Natural Science requirements may be selected from the following: BIO 101-BIO 102; CHM 111-CHM 112; PHY 201-PHY 202, PHY 241-PHY 242, BIO 141-BIO 142, CHM 241 (w/CHM 245) CHM 242 (w/CHM 246), BIO 150. Students should determine transfer institution's requirements prior to selection. Some four-year degree programs require a two-semester sequence of a single laboratory science, chosen from BIO 101-BIO 102, CHM 111-CHM 112, PHY 201-PHY 202, or PHY 241-PHY 242. Students may choose from college approved Social Science Requirements in the college catalog. One of the two required Social Sciences courses cannot be a HIS course.
