It's surprising to me - 300+ level courses were part of my undergrad required coursework - of course I wasn't studying at Stanford. Are course numbers standardized across academia or unique to an institution?
- copperx 6y agoCourse numbers are not standardized, although there are common numbering schemes. There are some uncommon ones such as MIT's, which uses a number and a dot instead of a subject name. And I've never known what institution the typical "CS 101" numbering scheme applies to.
- ludwigschubert 6y agoAfaik they're unique—and not monotonously increasing in difficulty either. Here's Stanford's numbering system for reference: https://cs.stanford.edu/academics/courses https://cs.stanford.edu/academics/courses
