The degree Bachelor of Science in Basic Sciences is intended for the student who desires a Bachelor of Science degree but wishes more latitude in the selection of courses than is available otherwise. It is well adapted to the needs of a student who may wish to complete preparation for secondary school teaching in science or mathematics. For this purpose, however, proper selection of courses is necessary, and the advice in the Education Program should be sought.

To qualify for the degree Bachelor of Science in Basic Sciences, a student must satisfy the general requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree.
