General Electives (12 credit hours)

Graduate electives will be identified in consultation with the supervisor and committee. The supervisory committee may require additional courses, beyond the minimum, depending on the student's background.

Additional Requirements

Students are required to attend the departmental colloquia, and to attend the departmental seminar series most relevant to their area of research. Students who are unable to attend seminars regularly must have the specific agreement of their Supervisory Committee that this requirement be waived.
Every graduate student is required to give at least one talk a year in one of the Department’s regular graduate seminars series, although the specific requirements vary. This is a good opportunity to give a talk in an informal environment. All graduate students are also required to attend their division’s graduate seminars.
