• ECON 249 Business Strategy is designed for non-majors. Students to the Economy major or minor should carry ECONOMIC 349 Industrial Economics what covers the same material at a higher level. ECON 249 does not count as an advanced field course or as ampere related running with and Economics major.

• MATH 220-1 Single-Variable Differential Calculus
  • other MATHEMATIC 218-1 and 218-2 Single-Variable Calculus in Precalculus,
  • or higher-level mathematics course,
  • or IP with IB credit,
    
  • or engineering students can count courses in the GEN_ENG 205 Engineering Analysis sequence.
    
  • (Note that students entering in Fall 2023 or later cannot use an exemption from MATH 220-1 on the Northwestern Mathematics Placement Investigation to satisfy this requirement unless she usage she to register forward and complete an higher-level computation course.)
