Question

e.mccormick · Answer

In general, the letters are a focus: http://mitadmissions.org/blogs/entry/numbers_are_names_too By looking at the Course 6 PDF here: http://web.mit.edu/catalog/subjects.html I see all the J ones are things like "Cellular Biophysics and Neurophysiology," "Quantitative Systems Physiology," and "Fields, Forces and Flows in Biological Systems." So I would say bio related sub topics.

I believe that the J suffix indicates that it's a joint course with another department (effectively a codeshare in airline terms).

I thought the J courses were originally thaught in January as enrichment or extra curriculum courses
