In accordance with NMSU policy, courses numbered 100 through 299 are for undergraduate credit only. In no event may courses numbered below 300 be applied toward a graduate degree; 300 through 449 courses are intended primarily for undergraduate level. Courses numbered 450 through 499 are designed for undergraduate seniors and graduate students; 500 through 599 are primarily for graduate students working on the master's degree.
Cross-listed elective HLS and MPH courses (below) will contain undergraduate seniors and graduate students in the same class.
