FOOTNOTES

¹ BSIM students must present MATH 2554 and 2564 in place of MATH 2043 and 2053

² Pre-business core requirement.

³ Students in ECON 2013 and/or ECON 2023 as a Social Science requirment may increase their general education electives by that number of hours.

⁴ Required pre-business core courses: must be completed before enrolling in upper-division courses.

⁵ Remedial Math (MATH 0003) or remedial English may be necessary if ACTscores are low. Please note that these remedial courses carry no degree credit in the College of Business Administration.

⁴ Required pre-business core courses: must be completed before enrolling in upper-division courses.

⁶ Computer information systems and quantitative analysis majors should take CISQ 2263 in sophomore year. Students in the computer information systems option and the quantitative analysis option should also take CSCI 1023/1021L in their sophomore year.

⁷ If a State Minimum Core (SMC)transferred from another institution or college includes courses which are required by the College of Business Administration outside of the SMC (e.g. economics, speech, etc.) for the B.S.I.M. degree, these courses will be accepted outside of the "core" and the student will be required to complete appropriate SMCrequirements.

⁸ Required pre-business core courses: must be completed before enrolling in upper-division classes.

⁹ The State Board of Higher Education has granted institutions the authority to require students majoring in business or engineering to take "higher mathematics" and specified science courses as part of the State Minimum Core (SMC). For the B.S.I.M. degree the College of Business Administration requires the successful completion of MATH2554 and PHYS 2053/2051L as part of the SMC. If a student submits a SMC which includes mathematics below MATH 2554 (CalculusI) and/or science other than PHYS 2053/2051L (University Physics I), the student must still complete MATH 2554 and/or PHYS 2053/2051Las a prerequisite for other courses within the degree program.

¹⁰ In addition, each student must satisfy the Advanced Composition requirement (see page 40.)

¹¹ Students who do not satisfy required mathematics placement scores need to register for both MATH 1203, College Algebra and MATH 1213, Trigonometry, or MATH1285, Precalculus. Students who have high school trigonometry and satisfy required mathematics placement scores should register for MATH 2554, Calculus I.

¹² Under Arkansas law, every student must pass one of the following courses: PLSC 2003, HIST 2003, or HIST 2013.

¹³ Students who successfully pass the speech proficiency test administered by the Communication Department may omit COMM 1313. Semester credit hours freed by this exemption then become additional free elective hours to be taken.

¹⁴ University core electives must be selected to include 6 hours of fine arts and humanities and 9 hours of social sciences, all from courses listed in this catalog on page 39 as acceptable to meet the State Minimum Core in these two areas.

¹⁵ Engineering electives and B.A. electives are to be selected with approval by academic adviser.

¹⁶ Satisfies state American history requirement and allows students to increase general education electives by 3 hours.

¹⁷ Students who wish to take these courses as a social science requirement may increase available general

education electives.
