Show Arts, Letters and Science At least 9 credit hours of approved courses in each of the two general education groups (Humanities and Life Science) and 12 credit hours of approved Social Science courses are required. Courses submitted to satisfy the Physical Science area requirement must include 10 credit hours from Physics 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66 and/or Chemistry 24, 25. (See Physical Science area requirements.) Required mathematics courses are: Mathematics 21, 51, 52, 53, 101, 152, 153, and in addition at least 16 credit hours of courses selected from Mathematics 127, 128, 131, 132, 135, 157, 181, 182. Other courses numbered above 101 may be substituted on approval of the Mathematics Department. At least 8 credit hours of mathematics courses numbered above 101 must be earned at Weber State College. Teaching Minor—Mathematics 21, 51, 52, 53 and 152 or 131 and 153 or 157. Mathematics 101 is a recommended elective for teaching minors. At least one four-credit hour course numbered above 101 must be completed at Weber State College.
