Articulation Agreement by Major
Effective during the 2021-2022 Academic Year
To: University of California, Los Angeles From: El Camino College
2021-2022 General Catalog, Quarter 2021-2022 General Catalog, Semester
Neuroscience/B.S.
IMPORTANT MAJOR INFORMATION
Listed below are the lower division major preparation courses for the major as
IMPORTANT well as important
MAJOR details to review. THIS MAJOR IS HIGHLY SELECTIVE. To be
INFORMATION
considered for admission, you must complete one year of biology for major with laboratory, one year of general chemistry with laboratory, one year of calculus
and one semester of organic chemistry with lab by the end of spring before transfer. Completion of a second semester of organic chemistry or one year of
calculus based physics is strongly recommended. If your college does not offer a two semester or a three quarter sequence in calculus based physics, All courses
must be taken for a letter grade. For more information regarding this major and UCLA's transfer selection process, visit www.eeb.ucla.edu/undegraduate and
www.admission.ucla.edu.
PLEASE NOTE: the community college courses listed below have been approved to satisfy the preparation requirements for this major at UCLA, but they may not
be exact equivalents of the UCLA courses listed.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
UCLA's life science majors require the completion of extensive preparatory coursework prior to transfer, therefore, you must be admitted directly into a life
ADDITIONAL
science major; you will not be able to change from a non-life science NOTES
major nto a life science major after admission into UCLA.
Students who have placed out of UCLA's Math 31A course based on AP/IB credit may be required to complete UCLA's Math 3C, 32A or an equivalent course
after transfer.
The Calculus for Life Sciences courses listed below have been approved as substitutes for UCLA's Math 3ABC series through Spring 2019. However, students
may be required to complete additional math courses after transfer to satisfy this requirement.
The community college statistics course included on this agreement has been accepted as a substitute for Statistics 13 however, it may not transfer as an exact
UCLA equivalent.
UCLA's Chem 153A and 153L are upper division major courses that are recommended, but NOT required for admission into the pre-major. Transfer credit for
these courses will be awarded via petition by the Chemistry department post transfer.
