Course information links for selected courses

In using the course information, please be aware of the following limitations. Courses are displayed by our best guess of anticipated offerings, though circumstances may change in such a way that actual offerings differ. Access indicates courses that are available to at least some students in a given category; please check the course descriptions for detailed information about prerequisites and access. Senior students might also wish to check graduate course offerings for other options.

Note: We have started to rewrite the "course descriptions" in a new format. We hope that the new format will provide more useful information. It will take some time to rewrite them all. In the meantime, you can easily tell the difference—old-format descriptions start with a header "Objectives", while the new-format ones start with the header "General Description".
