above…..are your credits posted on MyPurdue?

MULTIDISCIPLINARY

Multidisciplinary requirement may be fulfilled by: Minors Dual Majors Certain Courses

Minor or Dual Major must include 9 hours not required for primary major

GREAT ISSUES Pre-requisite is COM 217 and/or ENGL 10600/10800

AND Junior level standing or above Great Issues combine science, technology, economics,

social impact, and look at a current issue facing the world today such as: Global Warning Nuclear Material Fossil Fuels Biotechnology

Not a lab science course. It is a discussion course usually including a research paper.

Courses must be approved for this requirement!

DO YOU NEED TO RETAKE A COURSE? The course and grade is always on your

transcript When you retake the course, the new grade

replaces the old grade IN THE GPA. Replaces even if the newer grade is worse.

New credit is all that counts Example:

FALL 2013 – ENGL 106 is a D with 4.0 credits SPRING 2014 – ENGL 106 is a B with 4.0 credits

The B grade is calculated into your GPA and you get 4.0 credits for English.

Course MUST be taken at a PURDUE campus to replace a grade AND be the exact same course number!!
