Just curious what courses the university/college students are taking next school year (also what is your degree, major, and what year are you in?) Mine are not finalized yet as I just switching one of my majors, but I should have it all worked out within a week hopefully. I am doing a BA in Religious Studies and International Development Studies, and will be going into my senior year in the fall.

Technical Writing
Databases
Engineering Web Applications
System Analysis
and either Small Group Communication or Intro Managerial Accounting.

So, I'm a Computer Science major (a Junior) with a minor in Information Systems and a possible minor in Business.

The only courses I'm 100% decided on are Gen. Chemistry and Spanish II. I'm thinking of either majoring in Neuroscience or Religion. Whichever one I do, I'll be taking a lot of science classes....every grad program I'm interested in is science related. I'm worried about making good grades this semester so I can keep my scholarship, so I can't decide what classes to take.

I had an acquaintance last year who switched from Neuroscience to Religion.

I tried to switch from Religion to Biology, but ended up going back to Religion (no matter how much I REALLY want to be a scientisit, my mind is just not scientifically strong enough).

Are you able to take both at your school? A double major perhaps? Or have religion as a minor (since you mentioned you wanted a heavy science course load)?

These are the courses I know about for now, but there might be a few minor changes later on:

Fall:
Intro to Biblical Hebrew
Political Theology and Religious Warfare
Intro to International Development 1
Communities and Ecosystems (Biology class)

the fifth class will either be
Environmental Problem Solving 1 or
Science and Religion: Historical Perspectives

Winter:
second half of Intro to Biblical Hebrew
Intro to International Development 4 (I already have 2, and 3 is not offered)
Christianity in Islamic Lands (focus is on the works of John of Damascus)
Religion and International Development--advanced theory seminar (an IDS class, but perfect for BOTH of my majors!)
then I have not yet selected my fifth. I want to do Conservation Biology as that one can only be taken as undergrad...or I may add another religion class here since I am only on the waitlist for the bio class. We shall see...

I am a freshman, so I'm taking the basics, and 1 or 2 others

*Book of Mormon
*American History
*Art +Propaganda
*Science101
*English101
*Pysch101

Mostly because these(mostly) can transfer over to the school I want to go to, so I am still hoping on that.

I'm still not sure what my schedule is going to be like yet. I should be getting it in the mail any day now.

This upcoming fall semester will be the start of my second year at community college. I'm an undeclared major, and I'm only taking courses to satisfy the requirements for obtaining an Associate's Degree. My ultimate plan is to transfer to a university afterward.

My schedule for the fall semester is as follows:

U.S. History Since 1876
General College Biology I (and an accompanying lab every Monday)
U.S. Government
Theatre Appreciation
Creative Writing

*Psychology
*Government and Politics
*Information Technology
*Modern History

I was pleasantly suprised with how easy the A-Level I.T modules are. It's also being taught by a teacher I knew at my secondary school, as is history, so at least I'll get on with half the teaching staff.

On the downside the college only has Mac OS installed on the school network and the word-processing package is Microsoft Office 2000.

I'm doing a BS in Sociology. I intend to minor in Religion Studies. :D I'm halfway done with my sophomore year.

Next semester I'm taking "Intro to Art", "College Algebra", "Intro to Study of Religion" (Yay), "Speech Communications", and "Reading and Writing Poetry, Fiction, and Drama."

Well in Australia we don't give labels to specific college years and most degrees are only three years. I'll be in the equivalent of my senior year, the 4th year of a double degree. My first degree is in behavioural science majoring in psychology and education studies. My second degree is a BA majoring in applied linguistics and minoring in development studies.
