SSBS Course Scheduling Cycle

Most courses in the School of Social & Behavioral Sciences are offered on a regular schedule. This page outlines the semester and/or years that each course is offered. This page should serve only as a guideline as SSBS reserves the right to make changes to the offerings at any time. The current course availability can be found in the official Andrews University course schedule at vault.andrews.edu/schedule.

Notes:

  • In the schedule colum, courses noted "Fall", "Spring", "Fall & Spring", or "All" are offered every year. The addition of "even" or "odd" is used in alternate year courses to designate which years the course is offered. i.e. Odd Spring designates a course that is offered Spring 2025, 2027, 2029 and so on.
  • Courses may appear multiple times in the table if multiple sections are offered, they are crosslisted, or they are taught in multiple formats.
  • In the instances where multiple instructors are listed, an & indicates that the course is co-taught, where an "/" indicates that the instructors alternate teaching the course.
