Course descriptions

Course descriptions are brief summaries that explain what a class is about, including the main topics and skills students will learn. They help prospective students understand the purpose and content of the course, so they can decide if it fits their interests and goals. A good description provides enough detail to convey the subject matter without being overwhelming, highlighting key themes, objectives, and any prerequisites or special features. Essentially, it’s a snapshot that guides students in selecting courses aligned with their educational and career aspirations.
