university courses

Higher education offerings

University courses are the individual classes or subjects that make up a degree program.

A student might take courses in biology, philosophy, and statistics during a single semester.

Course can refer to the content taught, the scheduled class meetings, or both: She's taking five courses this term.

In British usage, course sometimes means the entire program of study: a three-year course in economics.
