Classification of Courses

The following classification of courses is furnished for clarification to assist students in choosing appropriate courses:

  1. Courses with the prefix DSP are developmental. These may not be used to satisfy degree or certificate requirements. Enrollment in these courses is limited to students who are placed in them according to the College’s placement procedure.
  2. Courses numbered 1000-1999 are freshman level and those numbered 2000-2999 are sophomore level. However, students having necessary prerequisites may take any course.

Cooperative Education

Cooperative Education is the integration of classroom theory with practical work experience. The program requires a student to have specific periods of attendance at the college and specific periods of employment. The employment periods are established by cooperative agreements between the college and business, industry and government agencies. Students are advised to check with the institution to which they plan to attend concerning the transferability of these courses.
