What is the purpose of the elective courses?
Elective courses are immersive, flexible, and innovative courses meant to assist students in achieving a concentration and a depth of knowledge in an area of individual interest. Elective courses will provide a combination of lecture, workshop, and laboratory and field segments, as appropriate. Some specialty courses of broad interest will be offered on a biennial basis, while others will be offered less frequently (every 3 or 4 years, or as appropriate). The spectrum of courses offered in any given year will be determined by student interests and educational needs.
