Class Schedule

Choose the proper quarter (not semester), then search under Religion, Religious Studies, Philosophy, and other subjects of interest. Note that schedules are not finalized unil the day registration for that quarter begins so checking earlier may be misleading. The JDP office can usually answer questions about the RLGN classes only. Otherwise questions should go to the department.  The schedule below is also useful for plannig ahead but it is not a comprehensive list of classes. 

Course Catalog

• All Iliff classes that are open to JDP students are described under the subject "Religion" and have RLGN designators.
• All core JDP classes have RLGN designators.
• All DU classes offered by the "Religious Studies" Department have RLGS designators. 
• All DU classes that are open to JDP students are described under their various subjects and must be graduate level.  Levels:  3000-level courses may also enroll undergraduates; 4000-level courses may also enroll master's degree candidates; 6000-level courses are doctoral only.
• JUST 3000 level classes are only for undergraduates; however, they may be crosslisted as a graduate level class.  JDP students should always take the graduate version of the class.

This project automatically searches multiple DU databases allowing students to find faculty members who teach or do research in areas of interest. Note that the designation "volunteer faculty" is a meaningless DU computer code/designation for Iliff faculty. 

This listing is designed to give you ideas of classes that are offered that may be of interest to JDP students. Please note that is not a comprehensive list, and that these schedules are preliminary and are subject to change. 

Make sure to check course offerings in the schedule for complete and accurate information as terms approach.

Faculty are on nine-month contracts and are not expected to work with students during the summer break; students therefore are responsible for planning accordingly. – Approved Nov. 13, 2015 by JDP Committee

JDP students may take approved doctoral classes that are offered in on-line and hybrid formats beginning summer 2018. -approved Jan. 16, 2018 by JDP Committee

Independent study (RLGN 5991 or 6991) is arranged by the student with a faculty member in order to explore a topic that is not offered in any course in the DU online catalog, or to explore an aspect of a course in much greater depth than could be done in the class.

Directed Study is used when a required course in the catalog is not offered in a quarter that the student must take it. The exact course number, title, and syllabus must be used in this case. 

Dissertation Research (now called Independent Research) looks like independent study and uses the same form for registration must always be RLGN 6995.

You can learn more about these designations in your handbook.  All three use the same form for registration.
