  • READ BEFORE YOU BEGIN

    • Before proposing a new course, it is suggested that the course be first taught as an experimental (course number x67) course. Developing and teaching an experimental course only requires the approval of a department’s curriculum committee. As an experimental course, the faculty member teaching the course can “work the bugs out”. Perhaps, after teaching it once or twice, the faculty member may revise the content, which could affect the course title or course description found in the catalog and in UDSIS. Teaching as an experimental course is not a university requirement, however it is strongly suggested as this can save catalog revisions later and improve the final course.  It is understood that there will be times that new course must be taught before it is offered in an experimental form.  In this case, the explanation for why the course needs to be created as a permanent course without having first been offered in an experimental version should be included in the form.  After having offered a course in its experimental form twice, it is recommended that the course should be proposed and be sent through the official course creation process.
    • All action on a crosslisted course must be taken by the course owner. If a course is adding a crosslisting, it MAY NOT be crosslisted with an existing course. Attach support letter(s) from the cross-listing department(s) by clicking the PAPERCLIP icon. Proposals that do not have a support letter from corresponding departments will not be crosslisted.

    Contact grading-registration@udel.edu with questions about requisites and restrictions.

    Prerequisites

    These are course(s) or conditions that must be met before a student can register. In this context, “conditions” refer to non-course requirements such as a minimum score on the Math placement exam.

    Examples: 

    • FREN 211 and one 300-level French class.
    • Grade of C- or better in MMSC 428
    • NTDT 400 or NTDT611

  • Corequisites

    These are courses that must be enrolled concurrently or may be satisfied by previously earned credit.

    Examples:

    • MATH 117 or MATH 231 or MATH 241
    • NURS 358 and NURS 359
  • Corequisite(s) (only complete if applicable):
    A corequisite operates as a prerequisite if a student has already earned credit in the course.

  • Antirequisites

    When a department offers different courses that have similar content, they can prevent students from registering in a course if they have earned credit in a similar course

    Examples:

    • Students who have received credit in ECON 101 or ECON 103 are not eligible to take this course without permission.
    • Students who have received credit in CISC465, CPEG465, ELEG465, MISY465, CISC 665, CPEG665, or MISY665 are not eligible to take this course without permission
  • Antirequisite(s) (only complete if applicable):

  • Restrictions

    Restrictions are used to convey information that students should be aware of prior to enrolling in the course.  These are included in the course description but are not enforceable as specific enrollment restrictions in UDSIS.

    Examples:

    • Knowledge of probability and statistics recommended.
    • Laboratory requires some out of class time for hands-on experience

    Please note:

    No requisite information (minimum grades, completion of specific courses, etc.) should be included as restrictions. That information should be in the appropriate requisite section above.

    Enrollment restrictions that are not based on specific courses may be enforced on individual class sections as Reserve Capacities.
