EXPLANATION OF THREE-PART COURSE NUMBERS


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 code for the Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-New Brunswick is 33. For a complete list of administrative codes used in this catalog, see the beginning of the Programs of Study and Courses for Liberal Arts and Sciences 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 does not constitute a list of majors.)

  010 Accounting

  011 Administrative Studies

  136 Business Analytics and Information Technology

  140 Business Law

  382 Entrepreneurship 

  390 Finance

  522 Business Ethics

  620 Management and Global Business

  630 Marketing

  799 Supply Chain Management

 851 Real Estate

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 799 are graduate courses.)

Two course codes separated by a comma indicate that each semester may be taken independently of the other (example: 33:620:498,499). Two course codes separated by a hyphen indicate that satisfactory completion of the first semester is a prerequisite to the second semester (example: 33:010:325-326); the first semester may be taken for credit without taking the second, except where a statement is added to indicate that both semester 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.
