Statement
on Florida's Statewide Course Numbering
System
The course numbers appearing in the catalog are part of a statewide
system of prefixes and numbers developed for use by all public postsecondary
and participating private institutions in Florida. One of the major
purposes of this system is to make transferring easier by identifying
courses which are equivalent, no matter where they are taught in
the state. All courses designated as equivalent will carry the same
prefix and last three numeric digits.
The classifying and numbering of courses was done by postsecondary
faculty members in each academic discipline. Their work was reviewed
by faculty members in all of Florida’s postsecondary institutions,
who made suggestions and changes to be incorporated into the system.
The course numbering system is, by law, descriptive, not prescriptive.
It in no way limits or controls what courses may be offered or how
they are taught. It does not affect course titles or descriptions
at individual schools. It seeks only to describe what is being offered
in postsecondary education in Florida in a manner that is intelligible
and useful to students, faculty and other interested users of the
system.
The course numbering system was developed so that equivalent courses
could be accepted for transfer without misunderstanding. Each public
institution is to accept for transfer credit any course which carries
the same prefix and last three numeric digits as a course at the
receiving institution.
For example, if a student has successfully completed SYG 000 at
a community college, the student cannot be required to repeat SYG
000 at the school to which he or she transfers. Further, credit
for any course or its equivalent, as judged by the appropriate faculty
task force and published in the course numbering system, which can
be used by a native student to satisfy degree requirements at a
state university, can also be used for that purpose by a transfer
student regardless of where the credit was earned.
It should be noted that a receiving institution is not precluded
from using non-equivalent courses for satisfying certain requirements.
General Rule for Course
Equivalencies
All undergraduate courses bearing the same alpha prefix and last
three numbers (and alpha suffix, if present) have been agreed upon
to be equivalent. For example, an introductory course in sociology
is offered in nearly 40 postsecondary institutions in Florida. Since
these courses are considered to be equivalent, each one will carry
the designator SYG 000.
First Digit
The first digit of the
course number is assigned by the institution, generally to indicate
the year or (level at which) it is offered. This digit does not
affect the equivalency.
0 — college preparatory
credit (not for degree)
1 — freshman year
2 — sophomore
year
In the sociology example mentioned above, one institution which
offers the course in the freshman year will number it SYG 1000;
a school offering the same course in the sophomore year will number
it SYG 2000. If the prefix and last three numeric digits are the
same, the courses are substantively equivalent.
Titles
Each institution will retain its own title for each of its courses.
The sociology courses mentioned above are titled at different colleges
Introductory Sociology, General Sociology and Principles of Sociology.
The title does not affect the equivalency. The courses all carry
the same prefix and last three numeric digits: that is what identifies
them as equivalent.
Equivalency of Sequences
In certain cases, sequences of courses in a given discipline are
equivalent rather than the individual courses, which make up these
sequences. In these cases the subject matter topics may not be taught
in the same sequence, course by course, in several institutions;
however, upon completion of the full sequence at any of the several
institutions, students have completed substantively equivalent content.
These sequences are clearly identified in the course equivalency
profiles.
Explanation of Prefixes
and Numbers
Prefixes and numbers in the course numbering system are not chosen
at random; they are designed to describe course content in an organized
fashion within a classification system developed for each subject
matter area.
Generally each of the major classifications in a discipline is represented
by a three-alpha prefix. In some cases, one three-alpha prefix has
been sufficient for the entire discipline. A discipline may use
as many prefixes as necessary to accommodate its major classifications.
The logic of the system allows it to be infinitely expandable with
minimal disruption to existing numbers.
History, for example, has several prefixes: AFH, African History;
AMH, American History; ASH, Asian History; EUH, European History;
HIS, History — General; LAH, Latin American History; and WOH,
World History. All history courses in the state will carry one of
these prefixes. (Local titles are used for each particular course.
The last three numbers are used to indicate equivalency.)
Exceptions to the
Rule for Equivalencies
The following are exceptions
to the general rule for course equivalencies.
- All numbers which
have a second digit of nine are for courses as directed independent
study, thesis hours, etc., and courses with 900 numbers must be
evaluated individually and are not automatically transferable.
- All internships, practicums,
clinical experiences and study abroad courses, whatever numbers
they carry, are not automatically transferable.
- Performance or studio
courses in art, dance, theater and music are not automatically
transferable but must be evaluated individually.
