This article advances the prerequisite network as a means to visualize thehidden structure in an academic curriculum. Network technologies have been usedfor some time now in social analyses and more recently in biology in the areasof genomics and systems biology. Here I treat the curriculum as a complexsystem with nodes representing courses and links between nodes the courseprerequisites as readily obtained from a course catalogue. The resultingcurriculum prerequisite network can be rendered as a directed acyclic graph,which has certain desirable analytical features. The curriculum is seen aspartitioned into numerous isolated course groupings, the size of the groupsvarying considerably. Individual courses are seen serving very different rolesin the overall organization, such as information sources, hubs, and bridges.This network represents the intrinsic, hard-wired constraints on the flow ofinformation in a curriculum, and is the organizational context within whichlearning occurs.
