 * Students can choose which course they prefer to attend in the first year and which one in the second year. Please note that both courses are mandatory in order to attend elective courses in the same field. So, keep it in mind before deciding which one you want to take first.

 Students wishing to waive out of any of the mandatory courses must submit a waiver request to the PhD director. The waiver request must include a transcript of the relative grades and a syllabus from the prior course(s) taken, that proves previous coverage of at least 90% of the material.

As a general rule, students asking for a waiver will be asked to pass a preliminary exam, unless the PhD director and the professor who teaches the course agree that -- based on the information provided -- the student can be granted an exemption
