COURSE LISTINGS AND NUMBERING

For university courses, the following information is indicated:

Course number
Course title
Semester hour value of course
Number of clock hours required per week in course
Statement of prerequisites and/or other restrictions on enrollment
Term(s) offered
Brief course description
Restriction of credit

When two courses are listed under a single title, a hyphen (-) between the course numbers indicates that the first is prerequisite to the second. A comma (,) between the course numbers indicates that the first is not prerequisite to the second.

Courses are classified by numbers, which indicate the class level at which they are most often taken. Class levels and number sequences are as follows:

Freshman Courses ................................................100-199

Sophomore Courses .............................................200-299

Junior Courses ......................................................300-399

Senior Courses .....................................................400-499

Senior or Graduate Courses .................................500-599

Graduate Courses .................................................600-799

With written departmental/school approval, seniors may take courses numbered 500-599 for either undergraduate or graduate credit. Designation of credit as undergraduate or graduate must be made at registration. With written departmental/school approval and with an overall grade point average of 3.0 or better, seniors may take courses numbered 600-799 for graduate credit. All seniors taking courses for graduate credit must submit a Graduate Application for Admission. Some programs require formal admission before enrolling in any course numbered 600 or above. Work taken for graduate credit may not be used to meet undergraduate requirements. Any senior permitted to enroll for graduate credit will be classified as a nondegree student until the student has attained regular admission to a graduate degree program. No more than 12 hours of graduate work may be completed prior to the completion of baccalaureate degree requirements and admission to the graduate program as a graduate degree student.

The figures enclosed in parentheses immediately following the title of a course are, in order of appearance, indications of the following:

1. Number of semester hour credits given for the course
2. Number of lecture hours normally scheduled each week for one semester in the course
3. Number of laboratory hours normally scheduled each week for one semester in the course

If there is one figure only, there are as many class meeting hours per week as there are semester hours credit for the course. A two-number sequence, such as (3:4), means that the course carries three semester hours credit but meets four class hours each week. A three-number sequence, such as (3:2-3), means that the course carries three semester hours credit but meets two lecture hours and three laboratory hours each week.

Terms Offered Key:

F = Fall
S= Spring
SU = Summer
AF = Alternating Fall Terms
AS = Alternating Spring Terms

Certain courses may be offered as summer workshops and/or through distance learning.

CANCELLATION OF COURSES

The University reserves the right to withdraw any course for insufficient enrollment. In certain cases and with the approval of the Dean, classes may be offered with fewer than the required number of students in order to meet specific needs.
