Text
A course contained in the requirements for two or more majors, minors, emphases, concentrations, options. or certificates as they are written in the catalog counts for each set of courses which contains the course; however, the units for the course are counted only once toward the total units for graduation. A course that meets a general education requirement and a requirement for a major, minor, emphasis, concentration, option, or certificate counts for both the major, minor, emphasis, concentration, option, or certificate requirement and the general education requirement. Majors, minors, emphases, concentrations, options, or certificates may not be written to preclude double counting.
