Though IGETC does not fully satisfy lower-division requirements for CNR majors, students may use a completed IGETC to satisfy Berkeley's Reading and Composition requirement and certain breadth requirements for some majors (Conservation and Resource Studies, Environmental Economics and Policy, and Environmental Sciences). Students may find they can take fewer courses overall if they focus on fulfilling the lower-division requirements for their CNR major. Most of the relevant articulated course listings can be found at www.assist.org. Students should complete the courses approved for Berkeley's Reading and Composition requirement if they do not complete IGETC.
