---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Courses are identified by a code, followed by the course title; a number identifying the credit value; figures in parentheses which indicate the number of lecture, seminar or laboratory hours per week; and an indication if the course can be used for University Transfer. Check under individual course descriptions to determine appropriate prerequisites. For example, BI 1070 Introduction to Cell Biology 3 (3-0-3) UT means the course is a Biology course in Cell Biology; it is a three-credit course meeting for three lecture hours, no seminar and three laboratory hours per week and it is transferable to one or more universities. One and one-half credit courses normally meet for one half of one semester and three-credit courses for one semester. Six-credit courses normally meet for two semesters. Six credits are considered a "full course equivalent", usually identified as an "FCE". Normally, fall and winter courses are offered for the duration of the semester and the number of weeks of study is considered to be 15. The number of weeks of study for courses that extend beyond one semester in duration, for example, EN1010, or less than one semester, for example NS1950, are identified by the "weeks" indicator. The Courses listed here are subject to change if program revisions are required. Not all courses are offered every year. Consult a current timetable for courses offered this academic year. You are responsible for the completeness and accuracy of your registration and for completion of the specified program requirements. This requires careful attention to course selection and compliance with prerequisite and corequisite requirements. Students in university studies are advised to use the details in Calendar and the Alberta Transfer Guide to ensure their course selection will fulfil university program requirements. If you are looking for upgrading courses in a certain subject area, review the list of courses in subject areas where the level of study indicates "HS". If you are looking for university-level courses offered by the College, you will want to review courses in the subject areas where the level of study has been identified as "UT". |
