The numbering scheme of upper level courses in the Department of Mathematics (which differs somewhat from that of other departments) is given below.
Numbers
<200 Undergraduate courses.
200-206 Primarily undergraduate courses. These courses are
recommended for students planning graduate study
in mathematics.
211-239 Graduate courses for students in mathematics and
related disciplines. These courses are also appropriate
for advanced undergraduates, especially those
interested in the applications of mathematics.
>239 Primarily graduate courses for students in mathematics.
However, sufficiently prepared undergraduates are
encouraged to enroll. Standard first-year graduate
courses in pure mathematics include 241, 245, and 251.
The department intends to offer all of the courses listed in this handbook at least once every two years, assuming sufficient enrollment. The courses that are offered every year are usually offered according to the schedule below.
Every semester: 111, 114, 121, 131, 135, 139
Every fall: 132S, 200, 203, 217
Every spring: 120S, 133, 136, 201, 204, 206, 218
Fall or spring: 124, 126, 187
