Courses

Each course indicates the number of credits earned; the hours of lecture or seminar per week; and the hours of laboratory or studio per week (if applicable). For independent study, readings, topics, or similar courses, individual instructors set hours.  If a course is listed as having an equivalent course, students may not receive credit for both courses.

For a glossary of the courses, please go to Course Directory .
