Legend:
1 Math 14 and Math 53 are to be taken together provided the student has passed the Advanced placement exam in Math 11. Otherwise the students must take Math 17 in the first year/1st semester (in place of Math 14 and Math 53); Math 53 in the first year/2nd Semester (in place of Math 54); and Math 54 in the immediately following summer session
2 May be chosen from Physics 135, Physics 161, Physics 195 or Applied Physics courses
3 May be chosen, upon the consent of the adviser, from courses in Natural Sciences or Mathematics
* Kas 1 and Fil 40 satisfy the 6 unit Philippine Studies requirement
Note: As a requirement for graduation, all students are required to take six (6) units in one of the National Service Training Program (NSTP) component. ROTC & Civic Welfare Training Service are offered by UPD.
