Important Resources

The current Schedule of Classes and General Catalog are available on the web as links from Bear Facts. The College of Environmental Design web site is www.ced.berkeley.edu.

Selection of Courses

Some of you have been approved for enrollment in studio courses. The CED Office of Undergraduate Advising will provide you with a course entry code (CEC) for the studio course to which you have been assigned. Contact adviser Lauren Roscoe at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it if you have not received this code by email.

When selecting courses, it is important that you determine whether or not you have sufficient background preparation. Look up each course in the General Catalog, read the course description, and note any course prerequisites. Also, as necessary look up the course descriptions of the prerequisite courses to help you determine whether or not you have already covered the prerequisite subjects.

See also the course enrollment section of the EAP Reciprocal Exchange Pre-Arrival information page.

If you need advice on whether or not a particular course is at the right level for you, contact an adviser or the course instructor. Note: The schedule of classes includes names of the course instructors, and the "People" heading on the CED website links to contact information for CED faculty and advisers.

Enrollment

You will receive an email directly from the University of California Education Abroad Program informing you about registration procedures.

You are required to enroll in at least 12 units each semester. Some of your proposed courses may be unavailable for the academic year or may already be full when you try to enroll. Before using the Tele-BEARS registration system, please be prepared to select alternate courses to those you sent with your EAP application. While you may put your name on the wait lists for courses that are full, there is no guarantee that you will get in, and you should enroll in additional courses as alternates.

Advising

Your primary contact concerning course enrollment is adviser Lauren Roscoe in 250 Wurster Hall. Lauren can be reached by email at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or by telephone at (510) 642-0928.
