Intro to Environment Science/SL - keymommy2000 - 12-24-2013
Does anyone know if Straighterline "Intro to Environment Science" satisfies the science requirement for the bsba in management degree?..

SL - Introduction to Environmental Science is considered as Natural Science credit in Excelsior.

All of the courses that are the equivalent of a TESC course with an MAT, BIO, ENS, CHE, and PHY prefix will count as natural sciences. The two programming courses might also count as a natural science, but the equivalency chart hasn't been updated with those new courses.

Good to know... However i need to know if just this class alone will satisfy the tesc bsba degree for natural science?

Did you click on the link? Environmental Science has an ENS prefix. The BSBA doesn't have a specific natural science requirement other than statistics and college algebra. Any natural science course can count toward general education electives or Human Cultures and the Physical and Natural World electives, but you don't need another natural science. The general education electives can also be humanities, social sciences, and interdisciplinary.

When I first took Environmental Science for my liberal arts degree, I thought the course would fit only in Free Electives. Much to my pleasant surprise, they put it in Natural Sciences. The same went with Intro to Nutrition!
I imagine it would fill the science requirement. But if any doubts, just talk to the advisors at the college.
