EXPLANATION
The semester credit hours are listed after the title of each course.
Example:
100. Introduction to the Arts. 3 hrs. A team-taught investigation of the music, visual and theatrical arts designed for students who are not otherwise academically involved with these arts (CC 1233)
Southern Miss courses for which there are acceptable junior/community college courses are marked as (CC ____). It should be noted that there is a variance in course sequence between the junior/community colleges and Southern Miss. In addition, courses with the same junior/community college numbers vary from college to college. An adviser should be consulted before course scheduling.
The plus (+) sign in front of a course indicates that a special fee is charged for that course. (All labs are subject to a usage fee.)
