Graduate Areas and Courses
Courses fall into one of four general areas of study. These areas reflect the strengths of the faculty while covering a broad range of topics. Master’s students are required to take at last eight hours in each of two areas. Although there is no such requirement for Ph.D. students, the qualifying examination (for Ph.D. candidates) covers all of these areas. Each graduate course is offered at least once every two years. Other courses are occasionally offered as special topics. See the detailed description page for more information about a course.
The areas, their associated subjects, and course offerings are:
