Finding Your Course Description in the Catalog

Course descriptions are located in the catalogs based on course level and college affiliation. Catalogs have a separate section for each college. The course descriptions appear at the end of the college section with which they are affiliated.

For example, LAE 101, "English Composition I," is a lower undergraduate level course offered through the College of Arts and Sciences. Its course description appears at the end of the College of Arts and Sciences section in the undergraduate catalog or combined undergraduate and graduate catalog, depending on the catalog year.
