Now let's take a look at a specific major. Let's look at bio medical engineering and what courses you need for that major.

First, you will see that In addition to English on Levano. One English, 1102 an calculus. One you will need a course equivalent to calculus 2 at Georgia Tech know that this would need to be equivalent to Georgia Tech math, 1502 or math, 1522.
