GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS: INTRODUCTION
What is the purpose of General Education? The purpose of general education is to develop a breadth of knowledge that will sustain the community and enrich the life of its members. By liberating the mind from the bonds of preconception, enhancing the ability to reason critically and communicate effectively, and developing an appreciation and understanding of the richness and diversity of society, general education strives to prepare individuals who can address the fundamental issues of our time.The program is designed to encourage students to:
Through the physical and biological sciences curriculum, students develop skills in applying the scientific method to the search for understanding of the components and processes that constitute our physical and biological worlds, and an understanding of the connections between scientific developments and contemporary issues that affect our lives.
Through the behavioral and social sciences, students enhance the understanding of themselves and others as psychological and social beings. The curriculum develops skills for analyzing human behavior and for evaluating facts and principles relevant to making social policy. Course work is aimed toward fostering civic and global responsibility and an appreciation for diverse values and cultural traditions, past and present.
In the humanities and arts, students are urged to explore fundamental questions regarding human values, aesthetics, and expression. The curriculum is dedicated to stimulating reflective thinking, imagination and creativity; to increasing civic and global responsibility; to cultivating moral action; and to building the communication skills needed to express the best of what it means to be human.
NOTE: In Segment II, students must choose courses in the three broad areas of knowledge which also satisfy the American Ethnic and Racial Minorities (AERM) requirement and the Lifelong Development (LLD) requirement (three units each). At least one course chosen in the Physical and Biological Sciences Area must include a laboratory or field (L/F) component.Segment I: Basic Subjects
Units Written Communications 3 Oral Communications 3 Critical Thinking 3 Quantitative Reasoning 3 Total units in Segment I 12Segment II: Arts and Sciences Core
Physical and Biological Sciences 9 Behavioral and Social Sciences 9 Humanities and Creative Arts 9 Total units in Segment II 27Segment III: Relationships of Knowledge
Upper Division Residence Units in a Thematic Cluster (including a Cultural Ethnic or Social Diversity component [CESD]) 9 Total units in Segment III 9 Total Units in General Education 48
Who must complete the 48-unit General Education requirements? Students must complete the 48-unit General Education requirements listed above, if they were admitted to SFSU in Fall 1981 or thereafter. Students may be eligible to complete the 40-unit General Studies Program requirements: (1) if they were enrolled in a California community college or a campus of the California State University system prior to Fall 1981 and attended at least one semester or two quarters every calendar year thereafter (excluding summer sessions); or (2) if they were readmitted to SFSU with at least 90 units of college work completed overall, and if they had completed at least 30 units of this total at SFSU, and if they were placed under the 40-unit General Studies Program requirements when they previously attended SFSU. Students should consult an adviser in the Advising Center, ADM 212, for specific information on the 40-unit General Studies Program requirements.
How does a transfer student get credit for General Education courses taken at another university? If students are California community college or California State University transfers, they will be given credit for specific general education requirements which their former institutions have certified as completed. If they are transfer students from another public or private college, they will be given appropriate GE credit when these courses have been determined by the evaluators to meet SFSU's specific GE requirements.
When students have partially fulfilled a GE requirement at another institution, they must complete the remaining part of the requirement with courses from SFSU's currently approved list of GE courses. If they are newly admitted transfer students, they will receive an SFSU ''Advanced Standing Evaluation Form.'' This document identifies those SFSU GE requirements that students have completed as well as those that they still need to complete. If students have questions about the placement of transfer courses on their ``Advanced Standing Evaluation Form'' for GE credit, they should inquire in the Admissions Office, ADM 253. To determine the correct way to complete their remaining GE requirements, transfer students are strongly encouraged to complete the ``Academic Progress Record,'' which can be found in the Class Schedule. Attendance at an orientation or Advising Center GE workshop as soon as possible after admission is highly recommended.
How do transfer students know their Bulletin year? This information is part of each student's admission letter packet.
What is an ASE? An Advanced Standing Evaluation (ASE) is a form which summarizes a student's transfer course work and tells how the work meets General Education and other university requirements. This form is sent to students before the end of their first semester at SFSU.
Can I use the same course for General Education and for my major? Yes, a maximum of twelve units used to meet General Education requirements may also be used in the major. Although the courses meet two different requirements, the units count only once. There are specific limitations on double counting in Segment III.
Can I use the same course to satisfy Segment II and Segment III requirements? No, a course used to satisfy a Segment II requirement may not also be used to satisfy a Segment III cluster requirement. For example, BIOL 330 is listed in both Segments II and III. A student may use this course to satisfy either Segment II or Segment III, but not both. See Segment III General Requirements.
Can I use the same class to meet General Education and U.S. History and Government requirements? No, students may not double count courses taken at SFSU toward both General Education requirements and the U.S. History and Government requirement. Engineering majors should consult the Engineering GE adviser for exceptions.
Can I earn GE credit for college-level learning that I acquired through prior work or life experience? Yes. The CEEL (Credit by Evaluation for Experiential Learning) Program provides an alternative method of earning General Education or general elective credit for those students who have acquired prior college-level learning for which no college credit has been awarded. To obtain further information about the CEEL Program and workshops, contact Tony Bithorn at 338-2948.
The 48-unit GE program was implemented in Bulletin year 1981-82, and through the years, the program has evolved. The Bulletin for each academic year describes the requirements in effect for that year. While students have the option of completing the requirements from their Bulletin year, they may also follow the requirements as stated in the current Bulletin. (Refer to the Bulletin Rights section of this Bulletin.) This means that as long as requirements have been fulfilled as described in a Bulletin to which the student is entitled (and not a mixed and matched version of instructions from one program and courses from another program), graduation requirements have been completed as designed. Consult an adviser for details.
Before selecting General Education courses, students should complete a copy of the Freshman or Transfer version of the Academic Progress Record (APR). The APR is a worksheet prepared by the undergraduate Advising Center that outlines SFSU graduation requirements and how they differ for students who enter as first-time freshmen (Native Pattern) and as transfer students (Transfer Pattern), and can be found in the Class Schedule.
NOTE: Some courses may not be offered every semester. A description of all courses is included in the Announcement of Courses section of this Bulletin. Unless otherwise stated, courses may not be repeated for additional units of credit. Consult Index for the section on Explanation of Course Notations in this Bulletin.

Effective Fall 1992, all students who register for a General Education quantitative reasoning course at SFSU must (1) have passed the Entry Level Mathematics (ELM) examination with a total score of 550 or above; or (2) have obtained one of the approved ELM exemptions; or (3) after taking the ELM, have passed intermediate algebra (MATH 70) at SFSU or an equivalent course elsewhere with a grade of credit (CR) or C- or better. Students who fail ELM may elect to: (1) take appropriate remedial mathematics courses at SFSU; or (2) retake it, if they scored between 480 and 540; or (3) take appropriate remedial course work at a California community college; or (4) take and pass a course that is certified by a California community college as meeting the CSUQuantitative Reasoning requirement. Students who have questions about course exemptions should contact the Testing Center, ADM 152.
