Course descriptions are presented alphabetically by subject. The three-letter prefix abbreviates that subject area; the three digits that follow identify the particular course. Generally, courses numbered 100 or lower are academic foundation courses; courses numbered from 101 to 199 are first-year offerings; and 200-level courses are second-year offerings.
Each description specifies the course’s credit value, which determines the tuition charge and the extent to which the course contributes toward the credit requirements for a degree.
All courses require college-level competence in reading, writing, and basic mathematics unless otherwise specified. Minimum proficiency is determined by one of the following: college skills placement test; completion of required academic foundations courses in reading, writing, and computation; or evidence of equivalent academic preparation. Specific skill requirements and additional course prerequisites are noted in individual course descriptions.
