Course Titles

A proposed new course, whether temporary or permanent, cannot have a title identical in its entirety, or substantially identical in its entirety, to that of a course already published (or already approved for publication) in the University Catalog. If the proposed new course is part of a sequential course series in the same academic department or academic program proposing the course, then the new course can have a title identical to the other course or courses in the series, as long as courses in the series are distinguished in some way (normally, by numerical sequence) in the title.
