Course Descriptions
2004 - 2005 General Catalogue
LISTED BELOW are the courses offered by
departments of the University. In addition, courses numbered 199,
299 and 399 may be offered by any department in selected topics via
radio, television, newspaper or other media. No credit will be
granted unless the student has been duly registered and the
student’s name appears on the instructor’s class
roster.
Courses numbered 0 to 99 are developmental and credits earned may
not be used to satisfy degree requirements. Courses numbered 100 to
199 are primarily for freshmen, 200 to 299 are primarily for
sophomores, and 300 to 499 are primarily for juniors and seniors.
Graduate credit is awarded for courses numbered 500, 600 and 700.
Listing a 300 or 400 level course along with a companion 500 number
indicates that undergraduate students register for the lower number
and graduate students register for the upper number. Courses
numbered 600 and 700 are open to graduate students only. Bracketed
[ ] numbers indicate a previous identification of a course.
Curricula are arranged so that students are to register for
appropriate level courses each year. An H after a course number in
this Catalogue or in the Class Schedule Bulletin (e.g., English
121H, History 102H) designates an Honors course.
Credit Toward the Degree. Some courses are very similar
in content to other courses. When a student takes two or more
courses that have similar content, only one of the courses can be
used toward the degree. Although the other course(s) cannot be used
to satisfy a specific course requirement in the degree, all courses
and grades will appear on the transcript and will be used in the
calculation of the cumulative grade point average. In the
calculation of the degree grade point average, however, since only
the courses applicable to the student’s curriculum are used,
the other course(s) will not be included in the degree grade point
average.
Descriptions of affected courses contain a phrase such as,
“Credit toward the degree will not be granted for
…”. Students should read the course descriptions in
this section of the catalogue, or consult with their academic
department, if there are questions about whether or not credit for
a course will be applicable toward the degree.
Minimum Length for Academic Courses. For one
semester hour of credit, a class shall meet approximately 750
minutes in no less than five days. For two semester hours of
credit, a class should meet approximately 1,500 minutes in no less
than ten days. A three semester hour course should meet
approximately 2,250 minutes in no less than 15 days. Final exam
periods may be counted as class time when computing required
minutes and required days.
