Example
BIOL 701 - (3) (Y)
Cell Physiology
Prerequisites: BIOL 501
Studies cell structure and function, metabolism, membranes and transport, and cellular specializations.
Explanation of example
BIOL 701- course mnemonic (see glossary) and number. Variations include GREE 701-702 where two semesters of a course must be completed to obtain credit toward a degree, or GFPT 703, 704 where credit may be obtained by taking either semester or both.
(3) - number of credits that will be earned upon successful completion of the course. Where courses are dually numbered (701-702 or 703, 704), the number of credits represents the number of credits for each section of the courses, e.g., three credits for 701 and three credits for 702.
(Y) - code for frequency with which the course is offered. Variations are:
S offered fall and spring semesters
Y offered at least once every academic year (fall or spring semester)
E offered when the fall semester occurs in an even year (e.g., 2002-2003)
O offered when the fall semester occurs in an odd year (e.g., 2001-2002)
SI offered upon sufficient student interest
IR offered irregularly
SS offered during summer session
Cell Physiology - course title
Prerequisite: BIOL 501. - Prerequisites are courses or conditions that must be successfully completed prior to enrollment in the course described. Prerequisites separated by a comma indicate a series of prerequisites, all of which are required. Variations include BIOL 501 or 503 where either course, but not both, must be taken prior to enrollment in the described course. An exception occurs when or precedes the last entry in a series, in which case the commas indicate or throughout (e.g., BIOL 501, 503, or equivalent). Corequisite means that concurrent enrollment in the course or courses designated and the course or courses described is required.
