Course Numbers and Class Sections

Course Numbers

Courses are numbered to show both the collegiate level at which they are offered and the hour value of the course. The first digit shows the level, and the second digit shows the credit hours. The last two digits are departmental designations. For example, Spanish 1301 indicates that the course is taught at the freshman level and carries three hours of credit per semester. All lower-division undergraduate courses ending in the numbers 87 and 88 are honors courses. 

0001-0999 numbered courses Developmental level
1000 numbered courses Freshman level
2000 numbered courses  Sophomore level
3000 numbered courses Junior level
4000 numbered courses  Senior-level
5000-7000 numbered courses  Masters level courses
8000-9000 numbered courses  Doctoral & Professional level courses

Some classes with a section designation will require a special approval override - please contact the department of the course for assistance.
