The name or title of a program consists of the
degree (e.g., BS) and the discipline or field of study
(e.g., Business Administration). It is also
called academic program, degree program, or curricular program.
A subject is a collection of topics that form
a coherent whole, intended to be taught by a faculty member within a specific
number of hours in a semester. The breadth and depth of the topics is designed to
fill the mandated number of hours, spread out over 16 weeks of a semester. A
subject is also referred to as a course.
In general, courses in the lower division
(freshman and sophomore years) are numbered 1 to 99; courses in the upper
division (junior and senior years) are numbered 100 to 200; and graduate
courses are numbered 201 to 400. Courses numbered 301 and above are generally
courses in the doctoral program.
