Academic Planning

The Undergraduate Catalog is divided into several sections including: university curriculum, academic policies, academic colleges and departments and course descriptions.

University curriculum will list what you need to do to graduate from Towson University. Also included in this section is a list of the Core Curriculum requirements and a checklist for you to track your progress.

Academic policies will explain academic situations that may arise (satisfactory academic progress, good academic standing, etc.).

The academic colleges and departments section is divided alphabetically by department. Each department has a section that explains the major and its tracks and concentrations. If the department offers a minor, it is explained there also. A specific list of courses needed to fulfill each major/minor or concentration or track is detailed in the department section, so it is a good idea to bookmark the page that begins the section for your major department.

Course Descriptions

These course listings are in alphabetical order by department. Each course listing includes a description of the course content and a list of prerequisite courses (courses you must have completed successfully in order to enroll).

As you look through the courses needed for your major or minor—or even some Core Curriculum courses—check out the course descriptions to be sure that you are eligible to take the course. Some courses are reserved for students in a particular major or minor, and they will be designated department consent. If you believe you are eligible to take a restricted course, you should contact the department directly.
