Course
Descriptions
In the following
pages, courses are designated by two numbers, separated by a colon. The
first number refers to the department or area of the course; the second
number refers to the specific course. For example, in the course designated
600:111 the "600" refers to the Department
of Art and the "111" refers to the course. In registration always use
the full number.
Courses
0-99 are primarily designed for freshman and sophomore students.
Courses
100-199 are primarily designed for junior, senior, and graduate students.
However, only those 100-level courses whose numbers are followed by a
"g" provide graduate credit, e.g., 400:173(g).
In all courses of the 100(g) series, greater academic achievement, both
qualitative and quantitative, is expected of those receiving graduate
credit than those receiving undergraduate credit. Freshmen and sophomores
may not register for 100(g)-level courses. Only in very special cases
may an exception be granted by the appropriate department head.
Courses
200-299 are primarily designed for graduate students. Undergraduates seeking
admission to graduate courses must secure the permission of the head of
the department offering the course. Courses numbered 200 taken as an undergraduate
cannot later be used for an advanced degree unless the student was eligible
to earn graduate credit.
Courses
300-399 are primarily designed for doctoral students.
Students
are classified as follows: Earned Semester Hours
Freshman less
than 30
Sophomore 30-59
Junior 60-89
Senior 90 and over
Graduate classification is earned by admission to graduate study.
