This requirement is not applicable to Nurse or Marine Option midshipmen. The following Catholic University courses fulfill this requirement:
    • MATH 111

    • MATH 122
    • MATH 221
    • MATH 222

  • World Cultures and Regional Studies Courses (Marine options exempt)
    • These courses must have a cultural emphasis on regions of interest to the Navy. Foreign language courses that do not provide instruction on culture are insufficient to meet this requirement.
