Using This Catalog |
Courses of study at Brigham Young University are offered, and credit for satisfactory completion is granted, on a semester basis.
A course's level of instruction is shown by the number assigned to it:
| Course | ||
| Number | Type of Course | |
| 1 to 99 | Preparatory and remedial (noncredit) | |
| 100 to 299 | Lower-division | |
| 300 to 499 | Upper-division | |
| 500 to 599 | Advanced undergraduate or graduate | |
| 600 to 799 | Graduate |
One semester hour of credit represents a minimum of one hour of instruction per week in a semester or two hours of instruction per week in a term (e.g., a three-hour class will meet at least three hours per week). The three-number code that appears in parentheses immediately after each course title has the following significance:
| First number | Semester hours of credit | |
| Second number | Class hours of lecture, recitation, or seminar meeting per week | |
| Third number | Laboratory hours required per week or hours of field study or individual research per week, beyond the hours shown in the second number |
Course Listings
The following abbreviations and symbols are used in the course listings:
| Arr. | Credit, class, or laboratory hours arranged | |
| ea. | Credit-hour designation applies to each registration | |
| H | Designates an Honors course that carries GE credit | |
| M | Designates an Honors course that does not carry GE credit | |
| R | Designates a course that may be repeated for credit. Two R courses with the same number on a transcript are treated as two independent courses. If an R course is repeated to raise the grade received, the grade will be averaged, because it is assumed that the subject matter varies from time to time. | |
| B | Cross-referenced course—one that originates in one department but may count for credit in another. (If you see a B or do not see a cross like symbol, you need a ITC Zapf Dingbats font) | |
| (19—) | Date faculty member was hired |
