Is projective geometry not deep enough to warrant its own courses?

TOPIC

I’ve been kind of fascinated by projective geometry since I first saw desargues’ theorem. Now I’m in a grad school with a pretty good math program and my degree has an elective slot. So I started looking for courses on projective geometry and there really aren’t any at all. There’s one undergraduate course called “geometric structures” that lists projective geometry among a few different topics that it goes into and that’s pretty much it. Otherwise, there are courses that just barely relate to it but nothing at all that focuses on PG.

Is is that rare for a school to offer dedicated courses on projective geometry? Is there that little to talk about?
