How are courses structured within Banner? Each course has a unique course identifier (CRN) and how is that created?
All section identifiers are numerical. Class section identifiers are assigned as follows: • Classes without any linked activities are 01, 02, 03 etc • Classes with linked activities (lab, discussion, lecture, etc) use the following scheme: • Lecture/Lecture Discussion or credit bearing section: 10, 20, 30 etc • Discussions are 2 digit numbers that sequentially follow the lecture/lecture discussion to which they are assigned: discussions 11, 12, 13 are assigned to lecture 10; discussions 21, 22, 23 are assigned to lecture 20; discussions 31, 32, 33 are assigned to lecture 30 etc • Labs are always 3 digit numbers: • If the labs are assigned to a specific lecture/lecture discussion, the first 2 digits are the same as the lecture/lecture discussion: labs 101, 102, 103 are linked to lecture 10; labs 201, 202, 203 are linked to lecture 20 etc • If the labs can be taken with any lecture and/or discussion combination, they are 3 digits beginning with a 9: labs 901, 902, 903 etc can be taken wi
