Which college courses in NYS satisfy science processes?

I'm trying to plan my college courses and need to fulfill some science requirements. Does anyone know which courses in New York State colleges meet these criteria? Any guidance on where to find this info would be awesome.

The specific science courses that satisfy a "science process" requirement can vary quite a bit between different universities, even within New York State. It's best to check directly with the college or university you're attending because each institution typically has its own set of general education requirements. Here's how you can generally approach this:

1. Review the course catalog or degree requirements for your specific program of study on your institution's website. These resources should list out the requirements you need to meet for your degree, including any science requirements.

2. Look for a list of approved general education or distribution requirement courses. Within the sciences, schools often divide courses into life sciences/biological sciences, physical sciences, and sometimes environmental or earth sciences.

3. Reach out to your academic advisor or the registrar's office for guidance. They can help you navigate your school's specific requirements and guide you towards courses that will fulfill your science requirements.

Typically, common science process courses can include: Principles of Biology, General Chemistry, Physics, Environmental Science etc., or even specific courses within these fields depending on the university's system.

Remember, each college has different courses that satisfy their science requirements. Some may also require lab work attached to these classes. It's also good to note that some institutions may have different science requirements depending on your major or program, particularly if your studies are not in a science-related field. So, it's important to confirm this information with your college's academic advisor to ensure you're on the right track.
