When entering text in the Basic Search box, there are a few helpful tips to keep in mind.
- If you enter more than one word, the catalog search will give you courses which include all the words you typed.
- You can use an asterisk (*) as a wildcard when entering course numbers. For example, if you want to see all 300-level Math courses, you could enter: MATH 3*
- You can search for multiple subjects and course numbers at once. For example, you can see all the 200 and 300-level Math and History courses by searching for: MATH HIST 2* 3*
- When searching for an instructor, use the entire last name.
- By default, only courses with open sections will be returned in your search results. To see all courses including full sections, use the checkbox in the extra Options area.
