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.
