In natural sciences courses, students become familiar with scientific thought, observation, experimentation, and formal hypothesis testing. They develop the skills necessary to make informed judgments about scientific information and arguments related to the natural world. Students also gain the ability to assess the impacts of our expanding scientific knowledge and technology on the diversity of life on Earth, and the quality of life for our own species. All courses provide experiences with the methods of scientific inquiry used to develop new knowledge about the natural world. N2 courses have a laboratory component; N1 courses do not include a lab.
Students will take 6 credits for the Natural Science requirement, to be fulfilled by taking either N1 or N2 approved courses. (Colleges and Schools may implement specific requirements or pathways to fulfilling these requirements.)
