Course Numbering System


All courses are distinguished by number and title.

Lecture, Laboratory and Credit Codes Explanatory information appears in parentheses following each course title, for example: BIOL 1010 - General Biology I  (3L, 3LB, 4CR).

  1. The number “3” preceding the letter “L” indicates three 55-minute lecture hours each week.
  2. The number “3” preceding the letters “LB” indicates three 55-minute lab hours each week.
  3. The number “4” preceding the letters “CR” denotes four semester hours credit for the course.

The following numbers are designated for special variable courses that allow credit for subjects which may not be covered by other courses. Due to the nature of these courses, students transferring to the University of Wyoming or other colleges may need to petition for acceptance of credits. Contact the registrar at the transfer institution if you have a concern.
