L&S Breadth List: Physical Sciences (PS)

The following courses satisfy the Seven-Course Breadth Requirement. Department headings marked "any" indicate that all undergraduate courses in that department are acceptable for breadth credit, provided that they are at least 2-unit courses. No more than two courses from the same department may be used to satisfy this requirement. Courses numbered 98, 99, or above 190 do not receive breadth credit.

L&S Discovery Courses were developed specifically to satisfy the seven course breadth requirement. To view current offerings, see http://lsdiscovery.berkeley.edu.

This list was last updated Tuesday, April 1, 2008 and only applies to courses taken in 2007-08.
