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


    Prerequisites

    A course or condition that must be met before a student can register for a course. In this context, condition refers to non-course requirements such as a minimum score on the Math placement exam. Elements that cannot be coded are not supported. Avoid vague or imprecise language. When more than one course is listed, use text such as “and” and “or” between each course for clarification.

    Examples: 

    • FREN 211 and one 300-level French class.
    • Grade of C- or better in MMSC 428
    • NTDT 400 or NTDT611
  • Prerequisite(s) (only complete if applicable):
  • Corequisites

    A course that must be enrolled concurrently or may be satisfied by previously earned credit. A course or courses, using prefix and course number, should be specified as a corequisite. Conditions such as an accepted placement on the Math Placement Exam are also permitted.  When more than one course is listed, use text such as “and” and “or” between each course for clarification.

    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

    A course that a student should not have taken prior to enrolling in this course. Although this is an exclusion, it still must be coded so language and direction remain precise and enforceable. When more than one course is listed, use text such as “and” and “or” between each course for clarification.

    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 or CPEG465 or ELEG465 or MISY465 or CISC 665 or CPEG665 or MISY665 are not eligible to take this course without permission.
  • Antirequisite(s) (only complete if applicable):
  • Restrictions

    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. Restricting enrollment by major is done at the section level via RESERVE CAP rather than RESTRICTION.

    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.

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

  • Restriction(s) (only complete if applicable):
Routing
  • Please note: Routing is a highly critical section. Failure to provide the correct routing information will result in the entire proposal being rejected and an entirely new form will have to be submitted. Routing errors cannot be remedied after launch.

    ​​​​​​​Please give careful consideration to this section before launching your proposal. 

  • Which College Approval Routing needs to be utilized?*
    Select the proper College or Program in order to ensure proposal is on the correct track. Ignore any symbols, they are used on the back end of the form so the number of routing questions could be limited.

Capstone Course Justification
  • The Capstone Experience will require students to engage in explorations in which the outcomes are unknown, and/ or engage in self-assessment, reflection, and analysis that prepares them for future success. These experiences should occur during the senior year or near the end of the program of study and must have a set of learning goals that are well communicated to students.

    In all possible regards, the Capstone Experience should be an expression of the totality of a student's growth, development, and learning as an undergraduate. If the Capstone experience is primarily course based (vs. internship, research, etc.) it is recommended that whenever possible, the course include high impact practices such as service learning and problem based learning. Each capstone requirement will be a minimum of a (1) credit, credit-bearing course. A Capstone Experience may be solely based within the discipline or be interdisciplinary in nature.

  • Type of Capstone Experience:
    *DISCLAIMER: Other types of courses may be considered as Capstone, but these courses are less well defined and need supporting justification
  • Explain how this course will require students to engage in explorations in which the outcomes are unknown.
  • Explain how this course will engage in self-assessment, reflection, and analysis that prepares them for future success.
Sustainability Designation
  • Across all academic disciplines at the University of Delaware, we are committed toward advancing our students’ critical understanding of the principles of sustainability as well as critically exploring impactful solutions to advance sustainability. To assist students ability to search for these courses, courses can be designated as "sustainability connections" and "sustainability investigations" courses using the rubric below. The Faculty Senate will assist all faculty to correctly classify courses within these two subcategories.  The parameters for the two classifications are as follows:

    Criteria for Sustainability Connections Courses

    SCON courses build competencies and knowledge in a field that is relevant to understanding some aspect of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Sustainability is a visible and explicit part of SCON courses, but does not need to be a major focus. While students may be made aware of multiple dimensions of sustainability, it is not necessary or expected that SCON courses will address more than one of the 17 dimensions in depth. It is expected the SCON courses will do all of the following:

    1. Introduce students to one or more of the Sustainable Development Goals that are appropriate to the discipline or area of study of the course.
    2. Make students aware that sustainability has multiple dimensions, including, at a minimum, environmental, social, and economic dimensions.
    3. Include at least one student learning outcome in the course syllabus stating that students will demonstrate abilities to either a) think critically about a sustainability question, problem and/or potential solution, or b) articulate connections between the field of study of the course and sustainability.
    4. Include at least one sustainability-focused activity or reading that provides students an opportunity to demonstrate attainment of the sustainability learning outcomes but does not need to focus solely on sustainability.


    Criteria for Sustainability Investigations Courses

    SINV courses have a primary and explicit focus on a major sustainability challenge that requires students to engage in a deep and focused exploration of sustainability and its multiple dimensions as a major theme of the course. SINV courses must include all the elements listed below:

    1. Course title or description clearly articulates a focus on multiple aspects of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
    2. Devote a substantial portion of course instruction and work to sustainability-related content that are appropriate to the discipline or area of study.
    3. Make students aware that sustainability has multiple dimensions, including, as a minimum, environmental, social, and economic dimensions.
    4. Include all of the following three student learning outcomes in the course syllabus stating that students will demonstrate abilities to:
      1. Think critically about a sustainability question, problem, and/or potential solution.
      2. Articulate connections between the field of study of the course and sustainability.
      3. Apply disciplinary or interdisciplinary knowledge and methods to analyze and solve a problem of sustainability.

    (Although the exact language of these three outcomes could be altered/tailored to integrate their meaning into existing student learning outcomes for the course’s discipline)

    1. Give significant weight to sustainability-related content in assessing student performance.
