<p>Just a curious situation to ask.</p>
<p>I'm a first year planning to double major in math and physics. For the 6 required upper div units, do you think it's possible that my upper divs from physics would count as units outside of the math major department, and math upper divs units would count outside of the physics major department, thus satisfying the requirement for both?</p>
<p>If not, I'll have to find a way to squeeze them in some way or another...</p>
<p>Thanks guys.</p>
<p>The upper division requirements for each major can have no more than two overlapping classes. That's what it says on L&S</a> Major - Declaring Major .</p>
<p>So, for "6 units", I guess it's possible. that's about 2 classes. And since two classes can overlap for requirements for both majors, yeah.. it works. Of course, that means no other upper division classes can overlap between rest of the requirements for each major.</p>
<p>Both of you guys are confused, considering you guys do not know what you are talking about. This is an L&S degree requirement, not a major requirement</p>
<p>The six UD unit rule means that you have at least 6 upper division units from classes outside their major department. I believe double majors are immune to this rule (I am a double major + minor, so my minor covers this rule for me)
E.g.: An MCB-CDB major who takes IB 131 and IB 132 for their MCB major meets the 6 UD unit requirement even though they are taking it for their major</p>
<p>Assuming this rule applies for you, this is what it means:
You need to have six upper division units from class NOT titled Physics 1## or Math 1##.</p>
<p>SIDE NOTE:
IF YOU ARE AN APPLIED MATHEMATICS MAJOR YOUR CLUSTER REQUIREMENT WILL MEET MOST OF THIS FOR YOU
