Course registration time is rapidly upon us.
The Faculty have some recommendations and advice
for all of you who will be signing up for Spring 2007 courses.
|
 |
The course requirements for individual
TAPP majors have been examined and you will receive an email informing you
as to which courses and sections have been reserved for you.
|
 | We will lift the registration holds on all TAPP majors, which
means that you can register without receiving advisor permission.
|
 | Simply because we do not require advisor permission to register does not
mean that Dr. Lynch or myself will not be happy to spend some time advising
you if you think you need help. If so, please make an appointment to see us.
It is immensely helpful if you arrive at the meeting with us having given
serious thought to your program of study!
|
 | It is not too difficult to advise yourself or prepare adequately for a
meeting with us. The first, best place to begin is to review your degree
audit, which can be found at "myUNIverse." It will list all the classes you
must take to complete your degree and show you the ones that you have
already taken.
|
 | Further information about our curriculum can be found at
http://www.uni.edu/tapp/curricul.htm There you
can find a four year program of study and the major's requirements.
|
 | Here's some ball park advice to pay close attention to:
 | if you have not taken 31T:013 Intro to Textile Materials, try to get
into it because it is a major prerequisite for more advanced courses. You must
use the sign-up sheet in the department office
in Latham Hall. You cannot get into the
class with computer registration. About a week after registration begins we will
notify you if you've gotten into the class and will open a slot for you
so that you can register by computer.
|
 | if you have not taken 31T:012 Creative Design Foundations get
into it if a slot has been reserved for you.
We will be teaching two sections of this course, so
there will be little excuse for not getting in. This course is a
prerequisite for both Computer design courses, so it must be taken to
get into those courses. This requirement will not be waived.
|
 | if you have taken 31T:013 Introduction to Textile Materials or
plan on taking it this spring, you should also try to get into 31T:014
Apparel Evaluation because it is a major prerequisite for
the advanced
design course. You
must use the sign-up sheet
in the department office. You cannot get into the class with the
computer.
|
 | if you have completed Apparel Evaluation
31T:014, then you should
take 31T:122 Apparel Product Development, Planning and Design. A section
of this course will be available Spring 2008.
|
 | for first and second year students that are looking for a good class
in TAPP, 31T:121 Fashion Promotion is fun because it is involved with
the Spring Design Show. Register for this class directly by computer.
|
 | more advanced students, junior and above should make sure they
register for 31T:123 Textile Structures, 31T:100 Computer Applications*
in Textiles and Apparel, 31T:115g Apparel Product
Development, Merchandising and Buying, and/or 31T:114g
Dress and Human Behavior.
