Core Course Substitutions
The following UC Berkeley courses may be used to fulfill the corresponding
core business requirement. However, units earned for these approved
substitutions are non-business upper division units and students
must take additional business electives towards the required 32
upper division business units.
Econ 100A or Econ 101A can be used in place of UGBA 101A. Our
understanding is that the Economics Department will use UGBA 101A
in place of Econ 100A or Econ 101A for both Economics majors and
those students pursuing Simultaneous Degrees in Business and Economics.
However, students should double check with the Economics Advisor.
Econ 100B or Econ 101B can be used in place of UGBA 101B. Our
understanding is that the Economics Department will use UGBA 101B
in place of Econ 100B or Econ 101B for both Economics majors and
those students pursuing Simultaneous Degrees in Business and Economics.
However, students should double check with the Economics Advisor.
IAS 106 can be used in place of UGBA 101A.
IAS 107 can be used in place of UGBA 101B.
Psychology 180 or Ind Eng 171 can be used in place of UGBA 105.
