    • Extension 03 or 06 following the course number indicates a term or a full-year (2 terms) course respectively. The first digit of the course number indicates the year level of the course. A course number starting with either 5 or 6 is a graduate course. Under Approximate Enrollment the first figure indicates the number of students taught by the Course Director and second figure is the total number of students in all sections of the course.
