Supplemental Coursework

Each student will work closely with his/her Academic Advisory Committee to create an individually designed plan of study that will enable the student to acquire the additional skills and knowledge to conduct research in his/her area of interest. The equivalent of 9 credits (3 regular term courses) is the minimum requirement for the supplemental coursework, but the actual number of courses/credits can exceed this minimum and will be determined for each individual student in consultation with his/her Academic Advising Committee. Supplemental coursework will typically be comprised of selected courses at other institutions in the Boston Area as well as specifically designed/focused independent studies with faculty members who have expertise in the area of interest.
