CAS 444 - Semiotics and the Study of Meaning
2009-2010 Catalog Year
Semiotics is the study of signs and sign systems in the world of
meaning we share through communication. This course is an
introduction to the methods and theories of semiotics and its
concern with the “life of signs“‘signs as individual entities, as
they operate within larger groups of signs called codes, and as
codes, in turn, operate within cultures. The importance of this
topic for human life makes the subject appropriate for students
from all disciplines, undergraduate and graduate.
PREREQ: upper division standing; completion of all lower
division courses in the student’s major.
