General Course Information

Course descriptions in this section are coded as follows:

1. Course abbreviation and number

2. Course title

3. Parenthesized numerals, e.g., (4-0-4), indicate, in order, the classroom hours, the laboratory hours, and the semester credit value of each course

Prerequisites, if any, are indicated in italics at the beginning of the course description. These have been established to assure an adequate and uniform background for students in advanced classes.

Occasionally students may feel they already have the appropriate background for an advanced course because of previous training, transfer credits, or credit by examination. In such cases they must consult the chairperson of the particular department about the advisability of omitting the prerequisite.

The 300- and 400-level courses in the College of Arts and Sciences may not be taken by freshmen except with the written permission of the instructor.
