The number preceding each course title is divided into three parts.
The first two digits are the administrative code (standing for a
faculty or a school), the next three digits are the subject code, and
the final three digits are the course code.
Administrative Codes
The Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy administrative code is 30 through
the first four years of the Pharm.D. program. A code of 31 is used in
the last two years of the doctoral program. For a complete list of
administrative codes used in this catalog, see the beginning of the
Programs of Study for Liberal Arts Students section.
Subject Codes
A subject code comprises the third through fifth digits in all course
numbers and indicates the subject matter of the course. Courses with
the following subject codes are listed in this chapter. (This list does
not constitute a list of majors.)
158 Chemical Biology
715 Pharmaceutical Chemistry
718 Pharmacology and Toxicology
720 Pharmacy
721 Pharmaceutics
725 Pharmacy Practice and Administration
Course Codes
The course code comprises the sixth, seventh, and eighth digits in all
course numbers. Course codes from 100 to 299 indicate introductory and
intermediate undergraduate courses. Codes from 300 to 499 indicate
advanced undergraduate courses. Courses coded from 500 to 899 are
graduate courses and are described in the catalog of the Graduate
School-New Brunswick and under the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy
section of this catalog.
Two course codes separated by a comma
indicate that each term may be taken independently of the other
(example: 30:720:391,392). Two course codes separated by a hyphen
indicate that satisfactory completion of the first term is a
prerequisite to the second term (example: 30:725:202-203);
the first term may be taken for credit without taking the second,
except where a statement is added to indicate that both term courses
must be completed in order to receive credit.
Credits awarded
for the successful completion of each course are indicated in
parentheses following the course title. The notation BA indicates that
the number of credits is determined by arrangement with the department
offering the course.
Unless otherwise indicated, a course
normally meets for a number of lecture hours equal to the number of
credits to be earned. Special hours or modes of class, other than
lecture, are usually indicated in italics below the course title.
