Currently Available Courses by Training Area: Students may suggest additional courses that may be appropriate (please provide course syllabus) or attendance at workshops or trainings (please provide course materials). As a general rule, only graduate level classes will be considered appropriate to meet the requirements. Undergraduate courses should have upper level or graduate content and should be justified.
