Course Descriptions

NOTE: This page is unlinked on the website, it is only displayed in the PDF.

Each course is identified by an alpha numeric code. The first three characters identify the subject code, the next three or four digits identify the catalog number. The department code indicates division or department sponsorship of the course. See column to the right for a listing of the department codes. The catalog number indicates the level of the course. Courses described in this section are listed in alphabetical order.

Read the description of the course carefully before you register for it, noting any prerequisite, corequisite, and the number of class hours. Each description lists the required number of student contact hours per week for a 15 week semester. For example, PHY 101 General Physics 1, 3 lect., 3 lab., 4 cr., meets for three lecture hours and three laboratory hours each week, over a semester of 15 weeks. Four credits are received on successful completion of the course. Consult your faculty advisor if you have any questions about the level or the content of a course.

Due to academic and fiscal considerations, not all courses can be offered each semester of every year. Courses taught only in the fall or spring semesters are so identified; otherwise, courses may be taught both semesters. Therefore, this catalog should not be considered a contractual offer from the college to any prospective student.

Frequency and Timing of Course Offerings
Unless specific semesters are listed, courses are offered on an occasional basis. The college reserves the right to not offer a course when scheduled, based upon budgetary or staffing needs.
