  36. What to Look For Subject (Subj) and Course (Crse) • Each subject you search has a specific 4-letter code abbreviation • Each course has an assigned 3-digit number • Subj + Crse columns combined identify the specific course you are searching mays.tamu.edu 979-862-3850

  37. What to Look For Section (Sec) • Each specific section offered has an assigned 3-digit number  200-numbered = Honors designated section; enrollment restricted to students admitted in Business or University Honors program; see Attribute  500-numbered = General undergraduate course, fall and spring semesters; restrictions may apply mays.tamu.edu 979-862-3850

  38. What to Look For Credit (Cred) • Number identifies credit hours associated with specific course • Most courses are 3 credits; can range between 1 to 4 depending on course • 12 – 15 hours (4 – 5 courses) is typical for a first-semester freshman mays.tamu.edu 979-862-3850

  39.

  43. What to Look For Instructor • Course instructor by section is listed; a highlighted name means it is linked to online information about instructor • When ‘TBA’ is listed it means the department has not yet assigned an instructor mays.tamu.edu 979-862-3850

  44. What to Look For Date • Lists the inclusive semester dates for class meetings  In this example, ISYS 210-501 has common exam times.
