The course numbering system has two parts that identify both the discipline and the level of difficulty of the course.
For example: XXX – 000
XXX are the letters of the course specialty such as ENG for English, MED for medical science, BUS for business, etc. 000 are the numbers of the course. Courses beginning with the digit “0” are developmental courses. These are 0-credit courses and do not count towards the credit requirement for a degree. Courses beginning with the digit “1” are credit courses at the introductory level, and courses beginning with the digit “2”, “3”, and “4” are advanced-level courses.
Courses may be listed with prerequisites or corequisites. A prerequisite is a course that must be taken prior to enrolling in a specific course . A corequisite is a course that must be taken at the same time as enrolling in a specific course.
Courses are offered in three modalities. Almost all are offered as traditional on-ground courses. Many are also offered online or in a hybrid or blended format. Hybrid courses usually meet a few times on campus during the semester. The remainder of the course work is done in an online format. Course offerings for each semester are published approximately fifteen weeks prior to the beginning of the semester and are listed online in the Student Information System.
