MIT relies on a set of catalog standards to maintain a consistent style throughout the Bulletin and its affiliated publications. Contributors can email intcomms@mit.edu with questions.
Some key points to remember:
- When creating subject titles, keep in mind our rules for naming a subject and naming a special subject.
- Often, abbreviated subject titles are needed to accommodate transcript restrictions.
- We have compiled best practices for writing subject descriptions.
- The style guide is our internal reference for creating or editing subject listings.
