Course Descriptions

Course descriptions are provided for course offerings at Scripps College and courses available as part of joint or cooperative programs in which Scripps participates. For those courses that may appear under more than one discipline or department, the full course description appears under the discipline or department sponsoring the course and cross-reference is made under the associated discipline or department. Numbers followed by, for example, “AA,” “AF,” or “CH,” indicate courses sponsored by The Claremont Colleges as part of joint programs, i.e., Asian American Studies, Africana Studies, and Chicanx Latinx Studies.

Please refer to the Schedule of Courses on the Scripps Portal published each semester by the Registrar's Office for real-time information on course offerings.

All courses are 1.0 credit unless otherwise stated.
