*Please note, this list encompasses Allied Subject courses for both the Chem and Chem Bio major. Some of the Chemistry and MCB courses listed may not count towards the Allied Subject requirement if the course is already an upper division requirement for your major. Graduate-level Chemistry courses (course #s 200+) may also be used to satisfy the Chemistry Lecture and Allied Subjects requirement, with approval from your adviser.

**For Chem 103, 104B, and 130B only 2 of the 3 units will count towards Allied Subject requirement since there are overlapping concepts with required major courses. However, students will receive the full 3 units of credit towards their GPA and the 120 unit graduation requirement.
