Course Numbering:
WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF CHANGING OUR COURSE NUMBERING CONVENTION.
- In the new course numbers, the first three letters of the course number represent the department that offers the course.
- The course numbers we are phasing out are five-digits, where the first two numbers represent the department that offers the course.
The three digits that follow either the three letter department code or the 2-digit department code signify seven different levels:
- 0-99: Open to students requiring development or remedial work (non-credit learning).
- 100 level: Open to all undergraduate students.
- 200 level: Open to all undergraduate students.
- 300 level: Open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors.
- 400 level: Open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors.
- 500 level: Open to graduate students and to qualified seniors by permission. A permission form, available in departmental offices, must be used to obtain approval.
- 700 level: Open only to graduate students.
0-299 level represents lower-division classes, whereas 300-700 represent upper-division level classes.
