As an exchange student, you will be registered for a full-time non-degree program and will be able to register for a variety of courses at Columbia College or at the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS). A full-time course load is 15-18 points per semester, which usually means five classes. At a minimum, you must register for at least 12 points each semester. Classes meet for two to four hours per week and can consist of lectures, seminars, labs, and discussion sessions. At Columbia, you are allowed to take courses in a variety of academic departments as long as you meet the specific course prerequisites. Some courses are restricted to students majoring in the area, other by permission of the instructor or the department. Students can choose classes that are listed as open to students from Columbia College or SEAS. Students may NOT take courses from any of the professional schools at Columbia: Graduate School of Architecture, School of the Arts, Continuing Education, Dental Medicine, School of International and Public Affairs, Jewish Theological Seminary, Columbia Journalism School, Columbia Law School, College of Physicians and Surgeons, School of Nursing, Mailman School of Public Health, Teachers College, Union Theological Seminary. Access to courses at the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and Columbia Business School are limited.

Over the summer, you should begin looking at the course listings on-line to aid in your course planning. During orientation, you will meet with your academic advisor to plan a class schedule for the term. Course descriptions and class details can be found at the following websites:

• Columbia College Bulletin http://www.college.columbia.edu/bulletin/
• SEAS Bulletin: http://www.engineering.columbia.edu/bulletin

The Bulletins include information about all departments, course offerings, and course descriptions. These are your definitive compilation of College or SEAS course offerings and policies. Each department of the College and SEAS is listed there, along with their contact information, website, course lists for the term, and the structure of the major, along with special notes and instructions. Note that all courses with an “X” are offered in the fall while those with a “Y” are offered in the spring.

The Directory of Classes lists the most up-to-date course offerings and indicates the time and day of class meetings, points (credits), instructors, and current student enrollments. This is a useful tool for setting up your day-to-day schedule and to prepare for registration: http://www.columbia.edu/cu/bulletin/uwb/,

Please note that the Directory of Classes is a collection of all of the classes across the variety of undergraduate and professional schools at Columbia University. Exchange students are limited to College or SEAS courses, except where specific courses in other schools are listed as open to Columbia College and/or SEAS undergraduates with special permission.

Howard University, located in Washington D.C. 2 miles from the US Capitol Building, is an institution that has historically had a student body from a BME background.

The exchange allows two QM students to spend the autumn semester at Howard taking three academic modules. Instead of module no. 4, the student will do an internship provided by Howard University (with either a member of Congress, a congressional office, or with the Mayor’s office). This internship would earn QM credit. In reciprocity, Howard students will come to QM and take three QM academic modules and do an internship organised by Simon Woolley, Chair of Operation Black Vote and a QM alumni.
