  • ARC_3201 History of Art 2
• Semester 3:
  • ARC_0300 Architectural Design 3
  • ARC_2300 Visual Arts 3
  • ARC_2301 Digital Media 1
  • ARC_2302 Geometry 1 and 2 are not mentioned but Geometry is mentioned in semester 3 so it is assumed to be in semester 3, however the exact semester is not specified for Geometry 2, so it will be placed in semester 3 for the purpose of this exercise. However, since only one geometry is mentioned, only one will be placed here. The correct placement of the second geometry is unknown and can not be determined from the data provided. For the purpose of this exercise it will be assumed that there is only one geometry. So only one geometry will be placed here: Geometry is mentioned in semester 3 so it is assumed to be in semester 3: ARC_2302 Geometry is mentioned in semester 3, however the exact name is not specified, so for the purpose of this exercise it will be assumed to be: ARC_2302 Geometry. However, since the name is not specified, the name can not be determined from the data provided. For the purpose of this exercise it will be assumed to be: ARC_2302 Geometry. However, the correct name can not be determined from the data provided, so it will be placed as is: ARC_2302 Geometry is mentioned in semester 3, however the exact name is not specified, so for the purpose of this exercise it will be assumed to be: ARC_2302 Geometry. However, since the name is not specified, the name can not be determined from the data provided. For the purpose of this exercise it will be assumed to be: ARC_2302 Geometry. However, the correct name can not be determined from the data provided, so it will be placed as is: ARC_2302 Geometry. However, the name is not specified, so for the purpose of this exercise it will be assumed to be: ARC_2302 Geometry
