New Integration Electives
Several new courses have been added to the list of pre-approved Integration Electives:
- BIOL 3120: Microbiology in the Genomics Era (thanks to Miruna Dumitriu!)
- DRAM 4110: Lighting Design (thanks to Kelly Croswell!)
- HIUS 3162: Digitizing America (thanks to Louis McCracken!)
- MATH 3100: Introduction to Probability
- MATH 3120: Introduction to Mathematical Statistics
- MATH 4452: Algebraic Coding Theory
Remember that the list of pre-approved integration electives is meant as a starting point, but is not meant to be exhaustive. If you find a course that seems to satisfy the goals of the integration electives, you may be able to make a case that it should count as an integration elective even if it is not on this list.

They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
