The purpose of the standard course of study for the SCI degree is to provide the student with an introduction to the major branches of science within the context of a comprehensive education in the liberal arts and sciences. Students who complete this course of study will be prepared to compete with other liberal arts and science graduates for a broad range of career opportunities in business, government and science industries. They will also be prepared to continue their studies in science and health fields at the graduate level.
 SCI majors must:
- plan their academic
program in accord with the requirements set forth in the Villanova University
Bulletin Undergraduate Full-Time Studies.
- satisfy the
requirements of the
Core
Program of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Sample four-year plan for taking the
required courses for
the SCI major are available for the various
concentrations offered through the
program.
You may with the approval of your advisor, vary the order in which you take courses. You may select whatever electives will help meet your interests and career objectives. In determining the order in which you take the courses you should keep prerequisites and co-requisites in mind. The check sheet which follows the sample program will help in recording your progress. By choosing electives carefully you can combine the SCI major with a minor or specialization in some other area such as physics, biology, computing science, business, etc.
Your advisor can help you design a program to suit your particular interests or
concentrations.
