Courses listed in this catalog have been approved by the faculties of the schools in which the courses are taught. Only courses which have been approved by the faculty are eligible for academic credit. The following information introduces the components of the course descriptions listed in each school’s section. Course Numbering SystemBACK TO TOP
Where possible, odd numbers signify fall semester courses and even numbers signify spring semester courses. The determination of course level is the responsibility of the offering department and/or school. The academic policy committee of each school is expected to assume the necessary monitoring function. Special Numbering The numbers 90-99 in each hundred series from 100-900 (e.g., 291, 493, 897) are designated for special usage as follows:
Independent Study and Supervised Research courses for undergraduates are topical in nature and generally not repeated; accordingly, they do not receive a continuing Record entry. Enrollment is by permission of the instructor. Because the content of such courses changes each offering, students may retake these courses or higher numbered ones in a sequence. Descriptions of courses numbered 600 and above are listed in the Graduate Record. Undergraduates wishing to take courses numbered 600 or above must obtain permission from the dean of the school in which they want to take the course, as well as from their own school of enrollment. Please note that not all courses listed in the Record are taught each semester. Glossary of Course DesignationsBACK TO TOPCollege of Arts and Sciences

Example:
BIOL 301 - (3) (Y)Cell Physiology
Prerequisites: BIOL 201, 202.
Studies cell structure and function, metabolism, membranes and transport, and cellular specializations.
Explanation of example:
BIOL 301 — course mnemonic (see glossary) and number. Variations include GREE 101-102 where two semesters of a course must be completed to obtain credit toward a degree, or ENWR 103, 104 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 (101-102 or 103, 104), the number of credits represents the number of credits for each section of the courses, e.g., three credits for 101 and three credits for 102.
(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., 2006-2007) |
|
O |
offered when the fall semester occurs in an odd year (e.g., 2005-2006) |
|
SI |
offered upon sufficient student interest |
|
IR |
offered irregularly |
|
SS |
offered during summer session |
| J | offered during January session |
Cell Physiology — course title
Prerequisites: BIOL 201, 202. — 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 101 or 201 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 101, 201 or equivalent). Corequisite means that concurrent enrollment in the course or courses designated and the course or courses described is required.
A study of cell structure and function, metabolism, membranes and transport, and cellular specializations. — Course description.
