Courses

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics offers a wide range of undergraduate and graduate level courses listed either as MA for mathematics or ST for statistics. To view a description of these courses, please see the Mathematics Courses page or the Statistics Courses page.

Please note that students who have credit for one or more upper division mathematics courses will not receive repeat credit for a mathematics course numbered below MA 2000. Additionally, students who have credit for MA 1713 are not permitted to enroll in any mathematics course numbered below MA 1713 without departmental approval.

 

Course Override

Undergraduates can now request course overrides during registration via a standardized eForm. The Course Override Request is a request for permission to register in a course when you receive an error during registration. You will specify the type(s) of override needed (prerequisite, major, class capacity, campus, etc.) for a specific section of a course as well as be able to enter a reason the override is needed. Registration errors are displayed in the Banner 9 registration screen, top right, when you are attempting to add courses. When requesting a campus override for Online Education (Campus 5) courses, you will have to acknowledge that additional fees are associated with those courses.
 
You will need to complete one eForm per course. Make sure to enter the course information from Banner 9 into the Section Lookup fields like this example -- MA 1213 01 -- where MA is the Subject, 1213 is the Course number, and 01 is the Section. Any additional information you want to communicate about your request can be entered in the Reason for Override field or the Note text.
 
Communication about if the override is granted or not will be sent to your MSU email address. If the override is granted, you will still register for the course in Banner 9 registration like all other courses.
