2.2. Add justification for all changes noted above: The mathematics prerequisite for ECON 201 is best understood as MATH 102 or above. Math courses that freshmen may test into are therefore explicitly listed. MATH 104 and MATH 201 are both math courses that students may potentially take as their first math class to satisfy the mathematics general education requirement. Both math classes are computationally as or more difficult than MATH 102 and are required by degree programs at DSU. Therefore, both math classes should be added to the prerequisite for ECON 201 so as to avoid prerequisite overrides.

2.2. Add justification for all changes noted above: The mathematics prerequisite for ECON 202 is best understood as MATH 102 or above. Math courses that freshmen may test into are therefore explicitly listed. MATH 104 and MATH 201 are both math courses that students may potentially take as their first math class to satisfy the mathematics general education requirement. Both math classes are computationally as or more difficult than MATH 102. Both math courses are required by degree programs at DSU. Therefore, both math classes should be added to the prerequisite for ECON 202 so as to avoid prerequisite overrides.

Section 3. Other Course Information Will this course equate (i.e., be considered the same course for degree completion) with any other unique or common courses in the common course database (Course Inventory Report)?
