10Core Curriculum (Core Curr.) courses may be taken in any sequence.

Notes:

  • All students must come for pre-registration advising every semester.
  • All students must have transportation for off-campus practicum during junior and senior year.
  • All students must have current CPR certification and immunization documentation report on file with department prior to the beginning of their junior year.

No more than two Breadth of Knowledge courses can be taken with the same prefix. The Core Curriculum courses may be taken in any sequence. Refer to the Core Curriculum policy for further details. You should meet with your faculty advisor to determine how you will meet the Core Curriculum requirements.

Current UMass Lowell students should be using their Advisement Report in SiS. If you need assistance, please contact your adviser.

Restriction on off-campus study:

Be advised that any course taken at another institution must be formally approved prior to enrollment. See the catalog policy for details.
