Notes

  • OSU: CH 242 is required as a prerequisite for CH 243 at PCC. CH 242 transfers to OSU as CH 337. This can be used as part of a chemistry minor.
  • OSU: CBEE 280 can be taken as a replacement for CBEE 211 and CBEE 212. This can be done over the summer before starting Pro-School. Contact OSU for details at 541-737-2491 or cbee_advising@oregonstate.edu.
