The list below is a projected schedule of ISD’s graduate courses. This list is updated regularly. Please note that all information, including when a course is offered, is subject to change. Finalized course offerings are available by fall, winter, and spring/summer semesters, and are updated shortly before registration opens for each term.

While ISD students have the flexibility to elect each term to take all of their courses that term either online or on-campus, it is important to note that they cannot take a mix of both during the same term.” 

ISD course online sections are designated as 88X or 98X and only ISD students with an online degree program code for a term can enroll in these sections.  You will need to contact your ISD graduate coordinator if you wish to change your mode of delivery for a term so that your program code can be changed.  This allows the appropriate online tuition to be charged.

ISD students classified as online for a term are not allowed to register for any on-campus sections, which are usually designated 001 or 0XX, even if they are labeled as being offered “remote.”  Remote sections are special courses for on-campus students only and require on-campus tuition to be paid.  They are not applicable for ISD online students.
