Academic Program and Course Selection
The All Programs section of this catalog lists the academic departments and the graduate and undergraduate major and minor programs housed within those departments. Students should check the online Course Offerings available during the pre-registration period each semester for an accurate list of proposed courses.
While the university guarantees each accepted student a full schedule of courses each semester pertinent to his/her academic objectives and in partial fulfillment of degree requirements, it cannot assure a desired time schedule, a preferred instructor, or a given course.
The university reserves the right to cancel any course for which the enrollment is deemed insufficient or for other administrative reasons. The university also reserves the right to change faculty assignments and therefore cannot guarantee students the faculty of their choice.
Advisement Guides, including general requirements, format of courses, and grading procedures, are available in department offices.
