Students should complete the 9 credits of required course work during their residency terms (first three terms of study). |

| Thesis Credits | NOTE: The thesis credits listed above may be added all in the same term (preferably in your third term), must be added only once, no duplication permitted. You should not register for the thesis credits if you plan to fast-track to the Ph.D. program.
