College requirements in HPS and mathematics will fulfill University requirements for graduation.

Math:

Math determines your placement into science courses

because math is foundational to the sciences.

REMEMBER… Everyone starts in the course that is best

for their success at MSU.

Math Placement:
Will determine your math coursework for fall and spring semester.
Do you have transfer/IB/AP credit for mathematics?
Credit MUST be on file.
Every student will take LB 118 eventually.
You will need either LB 119 OR STT 231 (your major determines this) to

complete your Lyman Briggs mathematics requirement.

You may take more math, it depends on your interests.

(STT 231 may not be available. You can take this the following school year.)

Lyman Briggs Science Coursework:

Based on your math placement score, you will be placed into the appropriate math courses and science courses for your first year. Your academic interests will also play into what science courses you take:

First-year students interested in chemistry or biology majors,

will likely take chemistry courses.

In order to take biology, you must first understand

chemical reactions.

First-year students interested in physics majors, will likely

take physics coursework.

History, Philosophy, & Sociology of Science (HPS):

HPS coursework replaces the University tier writing

requirement, WRA 101.

Lyman Briggs students will take LB 133, not WRA 101.
You are completing University requirements in the “Briggs” way,

with a science focus through HPS. History, Philosophy, & Sociology of Science

LB 133- Introduction to HPS, tier I University writing requirement

LB 133 will cover University writing requirement WRA 101

LB 321-7A/B Two upper-level HPS courses, tier II University writing

LB 321-7A will cover University Integrative Studies requirement IAH 211+
LB 321-7B will cover University Integrative Studies requirement ISS 3xx

requirement

SLIDE 12

University Requirements:

Integrative Studies in Social Integrative Studies in Arts & Science (ISS) Humanities (IAH)

ISS 200- level IAH 201-210

Integrative Studies coursework provides a background in

social science and arts and humanities.

This coursework is required for graduation.
It can be taken anytime, but it is likely you will take one in your first

year.

Honors College (HC) students will not take ISS and IAH courses.

Please refer to your appointment with your HC advisor and substitutions you agreed upon during your advising appointment.

Next steps:

1. Continue completing modules.
2. Complete ALL modules at least 1 week before

your orientation date.

3. Review activities and resources for this module.
4. Check your MSU email regularly.
We will send you an email providing the specific

time during your NSO date that you will meet with an advisor via zoom.

5. Come back to this module, as needed, when you
