Pattern for Teaching Upper Level
Math
Courses
Course descriptions can be
found in WebStac and in the University's Course Listing Book. Syllabi from
recent past offerings of a course are sometimes still available at the link Course Syllabi
on the Undergraduate Web Page
A tentative schedule of
courses for the coming semester sis posted at the Courses link on the Undergraduate Web Page early
in the preceding semester (sooner
than available via WebStac). The list below gives the “usual
pattern” for scheduling upper level math courses. Sometimes there will be
variations caused by faculty on leave, unexpected departures of faculty, and variations
in the number of guest faculty.
The
prerequisites given in a course description in the Bulletin, Course
Listing, or WebStac represent our estimate of the background you should
have for a course. The instructor always has the right to assume
that you're familiar with the standard material in prerequisite
courses. If you're uncertain, check with the instructor before
enrolling: "permission of the instructor" can always replace a
prerequisite, but be careful about taking courses without the stated prerequisites. . Most of the upper level courses listed below are
marked with
the symbols F (Fall)
or S(Spring) to indicate the
semester
when they are most likely to be offered.
FS
= “every semester”
AF
and AS denote alternate Fall or
alternate
Spring semesters.
Any courses not marked in this way are
offered only irregularly.
