Upcoming 484 Topics and Lead-in Classes

Students are strongly encouraged to take one lead-in course for each 484. Please note that the enrollment for 484 sections is only 18 students and you may want to be prepared for two different 484 topics. You must ask the faculty member teaching the section of 484 that you wish to enroll in to allow you to register for the course. After the faculty member gives you permission, you still need to register for the course.
