Permanent substitutions
(applicable only to certain degree programs)

  In the old G.E. program, there are permanent substitutions for Nat. Sc. I/2 and Math 1 with a set of courses in major fields of natural science curricula. These are applicable for a number of Bachelor of Science degree programs like Architecture, Engineering, Business Administration, Economics, Chemistry, Biology, Physics and a few more. Click here to view a listing of degree programs with permanent substitutions. If you are not in any of the degree programs listed, then you can skip this ruling.

  Substitutions will apply as follows:

SubjectSubstitutions
Nat. Sc. 1Chemistry 16 and Physics 71
Nat. Sc. 2Geology 11 and Biology 11
Math l[Math 11 and Math 14] or Math 17
and up to Calculus (Math 53 or 100) for programs whose curricula do not require Math 1

As a result of these substitutions, there are some curricula which do not have 42 G.E. units in the old G.E. program.

Examples:

Degree ProgramSubstitutions Total # GE units under old G.E.P.Total # G.E. units under R.G.E.P.
BS ArchitectureMath 1 substituted with Math 11, 14 and 53 (These 3 Math courses are required in BS Archi curriculum) 39 units39 units + 3 units in Math, Science, Tech domain
BS EconMath 1 substituted with Math 17, 100 (These 2 Math courses are required in BS Econ curriculum) 39 units39 units + 3 units Math, Science, Tech domain
BS ChemMath 1 substituted with Math 17, 53; Nat. Sc. 1 substituted with Chem 16, Phys 71; Nat. Sc. 2 substituted with Geo 11, Bio 11 33 units33 units + 3 units Math, Science, Tech domain


  Under the R.G.E.P., such substitutions are retained. Other substitutions will have to be approved by the University Council.

  Students of degree programs where such substitutions have been applied cannot enroll with credit the G.E. courses which have been substituted.

Examples:

  The College of Engineering students cannot enroll for credit Math 1 to partly comply with the required G.E. units under the Math, Science and Technology domain because all the Engineering curricula already require Math 17 and Math 53.

  BS Chemistry students cannot enroll for credit Nat. Sc. 1 or Nat. Sc. 2 to partly comply with their G.E. units under the Math, Science and Technology domain.
