Courses

All active courses are listed alphabetically by the course prefix under the dropdown menu. Courses which are cross-listed will appear in more than one place.

Course Designations

Courses of instruction are designated by a system of four-digit numbers within each department. The first digit in the number indicates the class standing that a student must attain to be eligible for the course. To interpret the numbering system, students need to know that:

• Courses generally for freshmen are numbered in the series beginning 1000. Freshmen may not register for any course numbered 2000 or above, except by placement or with the permission of the instructor. Similarly, sophomores may not register for courses numbered 3000 or above, or juniors 4000 or above, with exceptions permitted only by the instructor.
• Cross-listed courses are courses appropriate to more than one department or area.
• The number of credit hours per course is indicated below the course title. Courses which may be taken for variable credit (applied music lessons, independent studies, internships, etc.) or which can be repeated for credit are so indicated.
• Prerequisites and/or corequisites for each course are so indicated following the description.
• Internships and Independent Studies courses are listed with numbers separated by semicolons. These courses may be taken in any order.
