How to Enroll in Major-Restricted Courses Design The Department of Design does not generally reserve seats for non-majors. In some cases, courses may offer a limited number of open seats available to students of any major during the general registration period. Once those seats are filled, non-majors will be placed on the University waitlist as usual and may be admitted between the 1st and 5th class days if space becomes available. Some courses with potential non-major seats include: DES 336: History of Design – Monica Penick (22425) DES 330T: Civic Service Design – Jon Freach (22399) DES 347: Publication Studio – Kevin Auer* (22435) *Please contact Kevin at deslab2@gmail.com about availability/enrollment processes Certain Design courses are also cross-listed with the Center for Integrated Design (ITD). These cross-listed courses are open to students of all majors on a first-come, first-served basis. ITD 330T: Speculative Futures: Bio Design – Jiabao Li (22594) ITD 330T: Ecological Interaction Design – Cathryn Ploehn (22591) Arts and Entertainment Technologies The Department of Arts and Entertainment Technologies reserves 2 seats for non-majors in most classes. To request enrollment, submit a non-major form and include a screenshot of the instructor’s permission to enroll. Please note that permission does not guarantee a seat. Forms are processed every few days in the order they are received. If a reserved seat is available, an enrollment offer will be sent; if not, the requester will be placed on an internally managed waitlist. Between the 1st and 5th class days, all students on the waitlist will be contacted and informed whether a seat is available. Students who receive an offer will have until the 6th class day to add the course, following the normal registration process. There is no longer a “late add” period during the 7th-12th class days. After the 5th class day, no requests will be processed, and the form will not be checked in order to allow 24 hours for students to complete registration.
