There are several different ways to perform a
search function while accessing the Dynamic Schedule of Classes. Here are some
tips for getting the most out of your search:
1.
Click of the drop-down box
entitled “Search by Term” and select the term you want
2.
Next use the drop-down box to
select the subject you want. Click on the desired subject once you locate it.
Tip: You must enter a subject—it is the minimum search criteria
allowed
3.
To view all the courses being
taught by a single department, click on “subject”, select desired subject, then
click on “class search”
Tip: Queries for
multiple selections of subjects, schedule types, etc. can be executed by
holding down the control key and clicking on the selections you desire.
Remember, the more selections you choose, the longer it will take to bring back
a response.
You can also perform these types of searches:
4.
You can search by “subject” +
“course number”
5.
You can search by “subject” +
“title”
Tip: If you search by title, you
need only put in the first few letters of the first word followed by a percent
(%) sign to do a wildcard search. The first few words of the title need to
appear exactly as they do in the course catalog in order for the system to
return any results to your query
6.
You can search by “subject” +
“schedule type” (i.e., lecture, lab, blackboard, etc)
7.
You can search by “subject” +
“course level” (i.e., undergrad or grad)
8.
You can search by “subject” +
“instructor”
9.
You can search by “subject” +
“time”
Tip: When searching using time, be
certain that you click on the appropriate AM/PM start and ending times since
the default is set to AM. For example, if you choose a start time of 1:00 and
ending time of 2:00, be certain that you have clicked on the PM for start time
and the PM for the end time
10.
You can search by “subject” +
“days of the week”
11.
You can search by “subject” +
“time” and/or “days of the week”
Two additional search capabilities are now
available in the online schedule of classes:
- Service Learning - Courses with a service
learning component are now searchable in the
schedule of classes under the "Schedule Type" group.
- General Education - Courses that meet
specific general education requirements are now
searchable using the "Course Attributes” group.
Undergraduate course descriptions have also been
added to the schedule of classes. The "View Catalog
Entry" link associated with each course includes the
current catalog description of the course.
