All courses of instruction are listed alphabetically. If more than one area of instruction exists within a unit, courses are listed alphabetically within that unit. Additionally, they appear in the straight alphabetical listing with a reference back to the unit.
Use the Course and Subject Guide located before the Course Listings to find courses quickly. Select prefix under Prefix/Subject Code column and find the page number in the last column. If the Prefix/Subject Code is unknown, examine the Courses of Instruction column for interest area and page number.
Courses 1980, 2980 and 4980, Experimental Courses, are new courses offered on a trial basis for 1-4 hours credit each. Registration is permitted only upon approval of the department chair.
Advanced Courses, numbered 3000 to 4999, are open to students who have 12 semester hours of credit in a given subject or who have the indicated prerequisites, and to those without the prerequisites who have consent of the department chair. In some instances, college/school/departmental requirements may vary. Students should consult individual areas prior to enrolling in advanced courses.
Individual courses of instruction are subject to change or withdrawal at any time and may not be offered each semester or every year. Any course may be withdrawn from current offerings if the number of registrants is too small to justify conducting the course. Students interested in a particular course during a particular period should inquire in advance and/or consult the applicable Schedule of Classes.

When it appears, the third and final number in these parentheses indicates the number of recitation hours per week. Specific information regarding courses within a particular department is located immediately before the course listings.
