Academic Course Credit Declaration
How many units of academic credit will this course be offered? Provide the minimum and maximum and increments (if
multiple levels of increments available) if not offered as one full unit.
This course meets the requirements for one unit of academic credit (or the appropriate partial unit equivalency) in the
following manner (select one option):
Option 1: The course has four or more hours (or the appropriate partial unit equivalency) of instruction officially
scheduled each week of the semester.
Option 2: The course has a fourth (or more) hour (or appropriate partial unit equivalency) officially scheduled in a
required laboratory, film screening, or other activity each week of the semester. Students must register for this
component in addition to registering for the course.
Option 3: The course, although officially scheduled for less than four hours (or the appropriate partial unit
equivalency) each week, has additional academic activities that meet special criteria. Such activities must satisfy
each of the following:
• be r
equired of all students and set forth clearly in the course syllabus.
• be structured so as to serve the declared learning goals of the course and to result in a product that is to
be
ev
aluated.
• be designed so that the total amount of academic work required for the course (including both classroom, or
direct faculty instruction, and out-of-class student work) is equivalent to 180 academic hours (150 clock hours).
* "
1 hour" = 50 minutes (an academic hour), per Federal Standards and the Carnegie semester hour definition. If
O
ption 3 was selected, check all of the activities that students may engage in to justify 180 hours.
